@Hans not sure… I haven’t been a fan of evolution till today. I am a thunderbird fan.

Will this work for all languages or only English (presuming it parses the body for things like “Here is the file you wanted”)

Oh, and for some reason, Evolution worked better in KDE than it did in GNOME for me. How that happened I will never know

Ya, that is exactly how I knew that Evolution has had the attachment notification. My last job had Exchange, and I will admit that Evolution did better than any other option out there even though it didn’t use MAPI but OWA. Still impressive, plus the calendar even worked which was really nice.

Good to know. I am not a fan of evolution… I miss thunderbird but it doesn’t have the Exchange support that I need for work (ms exchange servers)

It was added in GNOME 2.20 I believe last year. I have used Kontact in KDE for years and always had this feature. It is a great feature, one I couldn’t have lived without, otherwise people would have received thousands of emails without that attachment
