About that double attachment in the attachment screen I am still thinking if I should fix that. The attachments in private message are somehow more controversial than the common attachments...

Right now I can duplicate the attachment for the attachment owner and all the members for which the attachment is sent.. that takes a lot of space in little time because a single attachment can be stored twice, or three times, or more. If I don't do that ownership of the attachment is difficult to determine.

If the owner of the attachment is the one that sent the attachment then I can go to attachments -> delete this attachment and the person that received it keeps nothing. I don't think this is natural, right now if someone sends me something by mail there is no way they can delete it after being sent.

If the owner of the attachment is the recipient then I have to do that store-attachments-more-than-once, and that's not nice for the db or the filesystem. I can't store it only once because a pm can be sent to multiple recipients, and then any recipient would be able to delete it leaving the rest with no attachment. This is even worse than the owner deleting it.

And now, why does the attachment appears twice in the attachment screen? That is because it appears once for each of your pm with that attachments, and if you send the pm to yourself and also you keep a copy then you have 2 pm's. Then that screen will link once to the pm you recieved from yourself and once to the pm that is in the sent folder.. even if it's the same attachment. That is why I haven't fixed it yet.. I am still debating if I should. Sending a pm to yourself is not that natural anyway, unless I were using the pm as a personal notepad or something.

That makes more sense now. I usually don't send pms with attachmnets to myself, so that is not any problem having it show up twice. It was just a test message that I have already erased anyway.

What about the Show Thumbnails not working with pm attachments? Can that be fixed?
