Attachment problem with8.5 Revision 20081211.1925

on messages received the attachments are showing way to the top even though the sender had attachments at the bottom of their note to me. When I right click on the attachment to do a save and delete, none of the Save or Delete options are available…they are all greyed out.

Subject: this is a deliberate change in the way we place attachment based on customer feedback

now all attachments in MIME messages are placed on an area on top of the e-mail - above message body

You can continue to find Save option when you select the attachment and right click - not on the body text

Subject: this is a definite problem/bug

do it this new way, removes the capability to save and delete attachments efficiently…I don’t know what customers were talked to but the ones I know will absolutely hate the way 8.5 does this and will NOT upgrade to it. I am removing the 8.5 beta now based on this one new unneeded feature!

Subject: “save and delete” greyed out

this is definately not a feature - my mail file grows beyond comprehension - please restore the ability to save and delete so I can save files to document repository and get it out of my mail file

I’m not sure which client’s you all talked to - but getting rid of my flexibility to manage my documents in my company’s approved process is ludicrous.

Subject: THSE7NJR6Z - cannot save incoming e-mail attachments

Are there any new developments on this? I’m a new Notes user (8.5) and the ability to delete attachments (better yet, save and delete) would help greatly. I will have already saved the attachment in the appropriate folder in my file management hierarchy. Saving the same attachment in the Notes mail database is unnecessarily redundant.

Subject: This makes it tricky to select the text, including the attachements to copy

With older clients, one could select the body text including attachments and copy & paste it to another documents rich text field.

With 8.5, the selection is tricky and the attachments may not be included in the paste action and have to be copied&pasted separately… seems like a bug to me…
