Version: nieznana (using KDE 3.5.6, Debian Package 4:3.5.6.r1.dfsg.1-1 (4.0)) Compiler: Target: i486-linux-gnu OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.18-3-686 When I receive email with doc or wma files attachement, they can not be opened from within kmail message viewer. Instead, a program associated with file being open displayes following error message: "file not found" or "file does not exist". As I checked, this is because somehow the path where attachement is temporarly opened when email message is beeing viewed is incorrectly transmitted to the opening program. Example: I got email with attachement "a.doc". Temporary placement for this attachement is "/tmp/kde-pawel/kontactuobdYb.3/a.doc" while the associated program "thinks" it is in /tmp/kde-pawel/a.d_[Kf4uha].doc. Some other types of attachements can be opened without problem i.e. pdf or mpg files. After some investigation I found out that wma attachements can be opened with other program (in my case kmplayer instead of kplayer). Still there is no possibility to open doc attachement. It can't be done neither with openoffice.org nor kword but the difference is that openoffice.org looks for a file in/tmp/kde-pawel/a.d_[Kf4uha].doc and kword in /tmp/kde-pawel/a.doc_[t5VAZa].doc.
The kde version is 3.5.6 from experimental repository on debian testing, but this bug also existed in kde 3.5.5 version. I am sure that earlier versions have the same problem too, but I do not remember which ones. The bug exists for some time, but until now I could not find time to submit it.
I think this is exactly the same issue as in bug #94336, comment #4. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 94336 ***
