IE4.0 saving attachments problem

Hello,

I've installed both versions 2.2.4-cvs and also the HEAD CVS one. The
problem is that.
1. There's a message with some attachment in it in my INBOX.
2. When trying to save it to disk, Internet Explorer tries to download it,
but:
- if I left click on it - it sais "Getting file information", and almost
immediately gives "IE can not download from the Internet site: ...  The
downloaded file is not available. " error; but some transfer takes place.
- if I do 'Save target as' - it goes through all the process of downloading,
but at the very end pops up with 'Can't save file', and aborts. No file is
saved to the disk.

Interestingly, that this DOES NOT happen with Netscape. In Netscape it's all
okay.

Moreover, on IMP demo site I have the same problem. :-(
Moving to 2.3 HEAD version did not help at all. Same thing.

Any advice for this? I read the list for a while, but it dealed with IE 5.5,
but I have 4.0.

Thanks.
