Bug#713811: kmail: KMail complains about an attachment and refuses to send message when no attachment was attached
Package: kmail
Version: 4:4.4.11.1+l10n-3+b1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
When creating a message, sometimes upon clicking on "Send", KMail will
respond with a dialog box saying "The message you have composed seems to refer
to an attached file but you have not attached anything." and prompting to
"Attach File.." or "Send as Is" or "Cancel".
I did not attached anything to the message, so I don't know why it's
complaining about this. Responding "Send as is" typically works and sends the
e-mail, but this can cause the message to be rejected by some mailing lists who
refuse attachments.
If the problem cannot be found, why not include a menu item in KMail and/or
a 4th option of "Strip this message of all attachments"?
