Hi,

I've found an instance of email attachment that does this.
And I think I've found the problem too:
I am using munpack to save the attachments, so this shows where the 'X' are coming from.

~/.claws-mail/ $ cat actionsrc
SavAtt: munpack -C ~/EmailAttachments -- %F


~/.claws-mail/ $ grep "SavAtt" menurc 
; (gtk_accel_path "<MainwinActions>/Menu/Tools/Actions/SavAtt" "")
; (gtk_accel_path "<ComposeActions>/Menu/Tools/Actions/SavAtt" "")


And saving the file with the button above gives this log:
--- Ended: munpack -C ~/EmailAttachments -- "/mnt/z/home_source/sorted/ClawsMail/trash/1720"
tempdesc.txt: File exists
ASGENX558XMayX2018.pdf (application/pdf)


Here's the email:
[ASGEN 558 May 2018.pdf  application/pdf (5541839 bytes)] 

  ASGEN 558 May 2018.pdf (application/pdf, 5.28MB):

  The following can be performed on this part
  by right-clicking the icon or list item:
     - To save, select 'Save as...' (Shortcut key: 'Y')
     - To display as text, select 'Display as text' (Shortcut key: 'T')
     - To open with an external program, select 'Open' (Shortcut key: 'L')
       (alternately double-click, or click the middle mouse button)
     - Or use 'Open with...' (Shortcut key: 'O')


Here's 'ls -l' after :
4008 -rw------- 1 ken ken 4102400 May 18 12:49 ASGENX558XMayX2018.pdf

See the 'X' in the filename...

The attachment is quite big so I am forwarding you the message privately to avoid spamming the group. 
However, it doesn't contain anything private so you can share it with anyone.

Thanks.
