Thanks for the idea! Yes that is a solution, but requires one more step. I
thought of having the path on my fingertips and available for cut and
past. Your solution still has a problem if you do this often, as it
clutters up \someplace\ and then I'm still at a loss which message which
file there was, unless I delete the older ones or overwrite them.

I figured, as the information about the file is there anyway, showing it
to the user, e.g. in the column of the message list pane at the very end,
would be very handy.
