           Summary: Path to evolution attachments when opened in other
                    applications are unuseable
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: evolution
        AssignedTo: seb128 at ubuntu.com
        ReportedBy: nikal at nucleus.com
         QAContact: desktop-bugs at lists.ubuntu.com


Open any attachment up in another application.  When you are done, save the
document using just the save method.  The document is saved to
/home/user/.evolution/cache/tmp/evolution-tmp-garbage/ ...

This is completely unuseable by a novice user.  When they are done, they simply
click save, or click save-as and then change the file name.

Somehow, evolution and/or the other applications should cooperate such that the
default place to save the new file is /home/user/Documents/ or at least /home/user/
