Re: [Evolution] Can Evolution send attachments that are not displayed in the sent-folder?

[Not Zed <notzed ximian com>]

A lot of virus software works merely on signatures (e.g. checksums) of

Perhaps the message is just misleading and the software is dumb?

As far as i can rmemeber, the message in 'sent' should be what was
actually sent.
