Re: viewing email attachments

I would love if that happened as well. Just click on it and it auto saves it to a temp dir, and opens the damned thing w/ whatever prog is associated.

Re: viewing email attachments

Yes, but I'm pretty sure I was able to open them by just tapping on them with the stock ROM...it's been a few months since I was on the stock ROM though, so I could be wrong.

Re: viewing email attachments

Same here. I can open them on stock ROM. Check your mail settings. Maybe you have it set to not download attachments?

I was thinking that too, but even if doesn't download the attachment, you wouldn't even have the option to save it (Save As is grayed out).
