[feature request] There should be more options for received attachments

[ghost]

When receiving attached files I wish I have this choice:

• Download this attachment / Download all attachments
• Save this file to my cozyfiles

[clochix]

Next release will add a download link to every attachment. How would you like to “download all” to be ? A link ? A menu item ?

Saving attachments into Files is in our Todo list. (also, allowing to attach file from Files to new email)

Nice, thanks, code warriors

How would you like to “download all” to be ? A link ? A menu item ?

I would say a button with a dropdown "Download all attachments / Save all attachments to my cozyfiles" would be great

Recent Ui changes (#270) have restyled the attachments dropdown in the header view. We can definitely add a last "save all" button that transfer a zip containing all attachments.

transfer a zip containing all attachments.

Why not saving all docs seperatlty in the files app? (to a preset folder or with a manual selection of folder)

@clochix is actually working on an extension for emails that supports saving in Files app. In fact, we should offer two saving way: save to Files app or Download. This choice should be not pre-setted but offered by 2 different links. This because I may want to save some attachments sometimes, but prefer to download them on my computer other times (e.g. when some partner send me documents I need to edit). We can use fa-cloud-upload icon for saving to Files, and fa-download for download.

Also it would be great if we can attach files right from cozy files :)

Hi @fairyfeller, This is definitively on our roadmap, we had some working proof of concept allowing to add photos of files from Cozy into a message. Unfortunately, the code and UX need some more work, so it's disabled for now, but we hope to re-enable it soon.
