Attachment not saved with a draft

[mtgxx]

Hello,

There is an unexpected behaviour in the webclient. I have done the following:

• start composing a mail
• attach a file
• click on save
• click on close
• open the draft again

At this point the attachment is gone.

As a user, I would expect the draft to be saved completely, including the attachment.

Best,
Matthias

Agreed, also discussed over email, we should immediately upload the file, save it in the draft, and rewrite the message with the attachments when the draft is saved. This would probably also impact how we forward messages, where we can include the attachments. We may have to be a bit efficient about it. For example, if 100MB of attachments have been uploaded, we don't want to rewrite a 100MB email message file each time the draft text is (auto)saved.
