Version: 4.8 (using KDE 4.8.0) OS: Linux The is exactly the same as bug 289534, but as it appears in a different KDE-version (according to bug 289534 it's supposed to be fixed in 4.7.4, but the fix apparently did not make it into KDE 4.8) I reported it as a new bug instead of reopening the old report. I got a GPG encrypted mail with looks as follows: **************************************************************** (...) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/encrypted; protocol="application/pgp-encrypted"; boundary="v9Ux+11Zm5mwPlX6" Content-Disposition: inline (...) --v9Ux+11Zm5mwPlX6 Content-Type: application/pgp-encrypted Content-Disposition: attachment Version: 1 --v9Ux+11Zm5mwPlX6 Content-Type: application/octet-stream Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="msg.asc" -----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) hQEOAzuGkxnMKmM8EAQA7QSs9onKoMyVpMp7BaBOUEsmVYNEFpxA6GuAuguUkRwi ROAOEofq0dmAJLc3OeEAasTMTVbaiDEpBmbQhGqUgPIOzSu/vkJ3mk1f+KUF9LBu (...) hYEfFFjWAf/BUrDlqo7b3sQZUSwxqPBt3vmilYpbYEv8sC2EMtehlPL326QxGHOq hWvTypyelk9L7+U8B6bNTpeQireA+fRuVQ== =aoj+ -----END PGP MESSAGE----- --v9Ux+11Zm5mwPlX6-- **************************************************************** After decryption, the ciphertext results in an embedded MIME message, which in turn contains an attachment. The embedded message is displayed after decryption, including the attachment which is shown as a link the message window, but the message structure view displayed by kMail does not change and the attachment link is not effective, clicking it is a no-op. Actually there seems to be no way to save the deencrypted attachment using kmail2. This worked file with kmail 1. **************************************************************** After decryption, the ciphertext results in an embedded MIME message, which in turn contains an attachment.

Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Receive an exncrypted message structures as described above. Actual Results: An attachment is displayed as a link inside the message window, but the link cannot be opened / downloaded. There does not seem to be any way to view or save the attachment. Expected Results: The link / attachment should be downloadable / saveable. Was fixed on the KDE 4.7-branch according to bug 289534. Please merge the fix, preferrably before KDE 4.8.1 is released, if it's not already too late...
The bug still exists for me in KDE 4.8.1 (Fedora 16 Package).
Persists in 4.8.1 (Gentoo).
I can reproduce it with KDE 4.8.2.
Also in KDE 4.8.4!
A workaround for anyone affected by this bug: → File → Save As → 'gpg --decrypt /tmp/saved.mbox > /tmp/saved.decrypted.mbox' → File → Open → Select '/tmp/saved.decrypted.mbox' → Save attachment as usual
The bug still exists in KDE 4.8.4 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS aka Precise Pangolin
Bug also exist in KDE 4.9.1. ! Sorry, but in this case Kmail is completely useless for encrypted email communication. Why UNCONFIRMED?
*** This bug has been confirmed by popular vote. ***
The bug exists in Kde 4.9.3. (Arch Linux)
Sorry. I meant Kde 4.9.2. > The bug exists in Kde 4.9.3. (Arch Linux)
Kde 4.9.3 has this problem also. (Arch Linux)
I have the same problem with KDE 4.9.98 from openSUSE Build Service It is the same on all of my Systems Bernd
The bug still persists in KDE 4.10.1 / kMail 4.10.1, so this bug exists in at least the releases 4.8, 4.9, 4.10 and 4.7.0-4.7.3. Laurent Montel fixed this for KDE 4.7.4 as stated in bug 289534 in December 2011(!), but apparently the fix was never merged to trunk. Please merge / port the fix to 4.10 and trunk as the usability of GPG-encrypted mails without any way to save the contained attachments is significantly hampered...
I do not experience this anymore after the upgrade to KDE 4.10(.1). I am on Kubuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise Pangolin), KDE 4.10. comes from http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu I had it in 4.8.4 (see comment #6) but it is now fixed for me.
Mh... For me it persists; I'm on Kubuntu 12.10 Quantal Quetzal, so at least a pretty similar system... Maybe it depends on how the message is structured whether it works or not? gunter@Zweiblum:~$ apt-cache policy kmail kmail: Installiert: 4:4.10.1-0ubuntu1~ubuntu12.10~ppa1 Kandidat: 4:4.10.1-0ubuntu1~ubuntu12.10~ppa1 Versionstabelle: *** 4:4.10.1-0ubuntu1~ubuntu12.10~ppa1 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu/ quantal/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 4:4.9.5-0ubuntu0.1 0 500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal-updates/universe amd64 Packages 4:4.9.5-0ubuntu0.1~ubuntu12.10~ppa1 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/ppa/ubuntu/ quantal/main amd64 Packages 4:4.9.2-0ubuntu2 0 500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal/universe amd64 Packages

KDE 4.10.5 (Arch Linux), Kmail 4.10.5, same problem! How KDE-Devs handle encrypted attachments?
