Attachment handling is confusing

Description

Attachments are visible only if the browser URL points to the message to which they were attached.

If the topic itself is called up, only attachments to the root message are visible.

If a response is called up (e.g. by following the URL in a notification mail), only attachments to that message are visible.

This behavior is very irritating, since it makes it seem as if attachments suddenly disappear.

And there seems to be no means of deleting an attachment?

Attachment was ment to be assigned only for whole topic. So this is a bug since I forgot to use topic resource instead of message resource when requesting list of attachments. Changeset r7282 fixes that.

Thank you for noticing this.

You can delete attachment with "Delete attachment" button when you are seeing attachment details.
