Sigh...  these old eyes have always latched onto the first match, so
never went past Save all... long enough to notice Save all attachments...
It just seemed reasonable to assume Save all... would save only the
attachments since noname.0 & noname.1 are never presented visually except
after the save completes... 

Thanks and sorry for the noise.
