            Bug ID: 4031
           Summary: Error when attaching file with special characters in
                    path by drag'n drop
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: Claws Mail
           Version: 3.14.1
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: UI/Compose Window
          Assignee: users at lists.claws-mail.org
          Reporter: jerome at jolimont.fr

When attaching a file by drag'n drop over the composition window, special
characters are replaced with spaces (I reproduced with '+', there may be other
characters).

Filename : "test+test"
Error : "File ///home/jerome/test test doesn't exist"

Likewise if the special character is in the directory name.

Things work fine if adding the file using the file selection window rather than
drag'n drop.

This can even be a security issue if file "test test" also exists because this
is the file that is being sent.

I'm using claws-mail (3.14.1-3) from Debian Stretch repo if that matters
https://packages.debian.org/stretch/claws-mail
