Version: 3.3.91 (using KDE KDE 3.3.91) Installed from: Gentoo Packages Compiler: gcc 3.3.5 OS: Linux I have lots of email, lots of folders. I often use emails to send and receive files. It would be very usefull to be able to search for an attached file by its filename. I know that I can search in the body, or head and it sometimes work. But a real filaname search would be more acurate as you could use joker ( "*", "?" ) and you would only get emails that really contain attached files. An example : imagine you are looking for a file named "testfile.txt". If you have only few emails that contain "testfile.txt" wheather in the body or as an attached file, it's ok. But if you have dozens of emails containing "testfile.txt", then the search is likely to be useless.
Hi, you can use this to find files (for example ): <message> contains filename="Scan0790.pdf" but it should be easy to implement this.
Indeed :) Few months ago, I wrote a small class to read rfc822 based email and I can say that the "filename="Scan0790.pdf"" line isn't always present for a multipart email. So that will not work all the time. But it's a good idea though, I will do like that until something different is implemented. Thanks.
