Version: (using KDE Devel) Installed from: Compiled sources Today I received an E-mail message, which I wanted to save and add a note for myself about it (annotation). I found that I know of no E-mail application, which can do this. Proposed feature specs: Terminology: - External attachment - today's attachment - is received from external E-mail sources and sent to other users when the message is forwarded. - Internal attachment - the proposed new kind of attachment - is created by the user and stays on his computer, and by default is not sent to anyone outside of his computer. Another possible name - annotative attachment. Operations: - Add an "internal attachment": Another operation on E-mail messages (in Inbox and other folders) will be added. This operation will be to attach any number of "internal attachments". - Change the type of an attachment, or a group of selected attachments, from "internal" to "external" or vice versa. More details: 1. Those attachments will be associated with the E-mail message as long as they stay in the folders managed by this E-mail application. 2. They will be marked as "internal" to distinguish them from the regular ("external") attachments. 3. When reviewing an E-mail message, the user can open an "internal attachment" the same way he can open an external attachment, and view its contents (which will typically be a short textual note, but can be anything, which can be attached to an E-mail message). 4. When an E-mail message is forwarded, it is to be forwarded without the "internal attachments" (unless they have been re-flagged as external attachments).

This seems similar in spirit to bug 130761 and bug 130763.
Hrm, I wonder why I didn't change this to wishlist before...
Annotation are already covered by bug 31650. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 31650 ***
