Hej Ludwig,

what type of attachment was it? image, pdf? And what application has been opened?

Ciao,
Tobias

n900 version 20110106 still open.

You can use any kind of attachment for this test, if a open app for this type  exists.

I tested with pdf. "Open" opens the PDF-Reader, but without displaying the test file. It is just the empty PDF-Reader.

Hej Ludwig,

is this reproducible on WinCE? If not, then the komo3 tag should be removed.
The bug you encounter here seems to be a well known bug on the Maemo platform. Their .desktop files, which say how a given file shall be opened, are incorrect.

Ciao,
Tobias

On WinCE it's possible to open an pdf attachment and the Adobe Reader LE ops up.
On Maemo the default application for pdf is osso_pdfreader which doesn't support any command line switch and must be called via dbus http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=29089 Maemo specific bug -> removing komo3 keyword
