Description James "Doc" Livingston 2006-08-15 11:55:31 UTC 
If I select an existing file when saving an attachment the file-chooser brings up it's "replace file?" dialog as normal. However Evolution displays an error when it actually tries to do that:

Error while Saving attachment.
Cannot create output file: file:///tmp/existingfile: File exists
Comment 1 André Klapper 2006-09-04 22:48:12 UTC 
fixed.
