            Bug ID: 4821
           Summary: If the Mail folder is on another partition, folder
                    chmod settings are not applied to draft and queue
           Product: Claws Mail
           Version: 4.3.0
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: Folders/MH
          Assignee: users at lists.claws-mail.org
          Reporter: mnieuw at zap.a2000.nl

Composing a msg and saving it to draft or (for later sending) to queue always
gives the msg a mode of 600, instead of what is specified in the folder's
properties. This is because in mh.c/mh_add_msgs() the creation of a hard link
fails (hard links are not possible to different partition), and then
file-utils.c/copy_file() is used instead. But that function does not have
parameters to use for chmod, so always sets the file mode to 600 (rw for user).

Maybe fix: add two fields to _MsgFileInfo, one gboolean to say chmod must be
done or not, one gint with the chmod value. Set these fields normally to zero,
except in the bug's case. Pass the fields also in similar extra fields in
MsgFileInfo . And propagate those down to copy_file(), so it can make a
decision which chmod to use.
