Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.7) Installed from: SuSE RPMs I get mail with 10 .jpg files. 1.jpg 2.jpg and so on I tried to select them all, from top-left "corner" to bottom-right. Impossible. There is enough margin on the left, but the margin is dead, you have to select from top-right to bottom-left. However it is not a problem currently, since KMail does not handle multiple selection.
The selection which you describe is part of the KHTML part. It is not possible to select attachments with that. I agree this is confusing - see also bug 124174. If your other wish is implemented, there will be for sure a proper way to select attachments. However, this bug report is superflous. BTW your other bug reports are all good quality - I never find one that is already reported :)
Thomas, thank you for a nice word, however the ratio duplicate/new can be still lowered down :-)
