Description Celso Pinto 2005-03-01 22:32:10 UTC 
Please fill in this template when reporting a bug, unless you know what you
are doing.
Description of Problem:
After receiving an email with a .vcf attached, the only option available
for that attachment is "Save to disk". Default action should be "Add to
contacts".

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. In address book, save a contact as ~/contact.vcf 
2. Compose a new email message to yourself and attach the ~/contact.vcf file
3. After receiving back the email, the only option available for that file
is "Save to disk"

Actual Results:
Save to disk is the only available option

Expected Results:
Add to contacts


How often does this happen? 
Always

Comment 1 Sushma Rai 2005-09-13 09:08:44 UTC 
This is because the mime type for vcf file is set to 
"text/directory" while attaching.

problem with gnome_vfs_get_file_info() with 
GNOME_VFS_FILE_INFO_FORCE_SLOW_MIME_TYPE ?
Comment 2 André Klapper 2005-09-20 10:24:30 UTC 
"save to addressbook" is in 2.4 - not in the right-click menu though, but after
you have opened the vcard attachment. retargetting from 2.3 to 2.5.
Comment 3 André Klapper 2006-05-25 21:59:24 UTC 
if you have the itip formatter enabled, this shouldn't be a problem as i already described in my last comment. futuring.
Comment 4 Gilles Dartiguelongue 2007-04-06 22:46:25 UTC 
Shall we fix the right click menu or is the itip plugin considered as a fix for this ? I'd tend to say the latter.
