I'm not convinced yet. I used Drag'n Drop to attach the file and then I
reviewed the content of the actual message body in the draft folder
where I saved the message before sending. In this message body there
was the mentioned file but had absolute no content.

How did you attach it?

PS: I can't verify anything else right know as I'm at work and not with
    my OS/2 machine. I'll do this tomorrow ASAP.
