Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

right click the attachment and chose save.
Then go to some fish:// path and click Save As..

You get a error message stating: Could not write the file /path-without-fish://

Twist: The filename has been touched remotely, thus giving a file with the attachments name with the size 0

Confirmed with current trunk, with original ~/.fishsrv.pl removed.

Something different happens if the attachment icon is dragged to a Dolphin or Konqueror view showing the fish: path, instead of going through the save dialogue.  Nothing is created there, not even an empty file, but an error box is displayed with the message:

  The file or folder /tmp/kde-jjm4/kmailr11025.3/ATTACHMENT_NAME
  does not exist.

The same also happens in both these cases for saving to a smb: or ftp: location.
