Attachment icon mostly missing in mail view
-
In the mail view (or whatever is the list of incoming messages on the left in the attached screenshot called), I mostly lack icons indicating a given message has an attachment. The example chosen is actually a government message that probably contains a signature, I chose it so that I do not expose my actual e-mails to the internet (not that anybody cares). However, even most "useful" attachments are not displayed. They are visible when I open an individual email (on the right here) but not in the mail view. Only some e-mail I sent to people have the clip icon, but none of the e-mails I got.
I reported this some time ago VB-77629 but it is still unconfirmed, so I was wandering if this happens to other people too?

Try switching the view (top right button or switch to another layout in mail settings).
I use a different view from yours and I do see the emails that have shortcuts (it's not an icon but the number of attachments).
I can confirm that they don't show up on the vertical view you're using. Not sure if it's intentional or not...
-
Actually, even on the view you use, attachments do not get shown for me. I think attachments are meant to be shown on my view to, because they are sometimes shown

@felagund I just received an email with an attached PDF and can confirm it doesn't show up as such on any of the 3 views.
As a matter of fact, I found other emails where the same happens - seems like only older emails have the attachment indication, not newer ones...That's definitely a bug...

I already filed a bug report some time ago: VB-81162.

I see the two bug reports for this issue from several months ago and I just wanted to add that I am also experiencing this issue. The same problem occurs no matter what view I use.
My email is with Gmail.
Windows 10: Home operating system. -
By the way the other thread that reported this is here: https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/63278/attachments-not-shown-in-corresponding-column-vb-81162
And as of today, both bugs mentioned here are confirmed and marked as duplicates (not sure which is duplicate of which): https://forum.vivaldi.net/post/543437
And there is a third thread here: https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/60527/bug-attachments-and-size-columns-don-t-show-anything-in-vivaldi-mail-desktop-app
with yet another bug number, this time VB-79346. -

Good to know. It is actually targeted to be fixed in 5.1, if I understand this comment correctly:
https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/27450/what-is-the-status-of-vb-already-reported-bug-issue/1268?_=1640192169345so let's keep our fingers crossed!

@felagund That is how I would understand that comment as well. Fingers crossed for the next update then!
-
I t hink it has been fixed. At least I can no longer reproduce it. Can anybody else?

@pauloaguia
Exactly, I do the same thing, that's how it works for me -
