Add Attachment

Hi,

First of all, thanks for developping Minotaur. I've recently switched (not completely) from Mozilla to Phoenix/Minotaur.

I have to admit that I'm really impressed by the performance/speed of these software.

Now, a problem discovered with Minotaur (Linux RH 7.3, version 04-04-03) . I'm unable to attach any document. Nothing happens when I click in the window attachment. Same problem for a right clicking and 'Add attachment'.
I've not tested with windows but I will do that soon.

Note: My profile is common with the one from Mozilla.
Mail folder and files are located on a FAT32 partition and are common for Linux Mozilla&Minotaur and Windows Mozilla&Minotaur

I have the same problem (same version). I can drag file to the attachment pane, but when I try to send the message, the files cannot be read, I am told. It might be because the dragged files appear as file:/... urls.

I cannot add attachments during the right click menu or through the File menu.

I've tested with the windows build. I'm able to atach a file by clicking in the 'Attachments' windows.
No problem to send (my own SMTP) and to receive the file (tested with a binary and a text file).
Then the problem seems related to the RedHat build (or to Linux builds)

Or to UNIX builds .. same thing on Solaris for me ...

Works in MacOSX, though, so I guess it's a problem with the UNIX filesystem interraction dialogs...

maybe.
Note that my binaries files are located on an ext3 filesystem and my mail accounts are saved on a FAT32 partition

I have all my files on ext2 file systems. I don't think that matters much. The type of file system is mostly transparent to the applications.

The same problem exists with my gentoo ebuild version (current as of four hours ago).
