Steps to reproduce

Context: automated download of attachments limited by device or app settings for various reasons, e. g. roaming (!) in a given email.

Forwarding (or reply to) the email results in loss of attachment(s). No warnings issued, no settings available to e. g. automatically download attachment (and override settings).

Expected behavior

When forwarding (or replying to) an email that has an attachment, which is not present on the device due to download restrictions (In settings), a dialogue should be started to inform the user that the attachment is not available for forwarding and allow the user to load the attachment to the device.

Actual behavior

Forwarding (or reply to) the email results in loss of attachment(s).

Logs

No log

Start by reproducing forwarding and replying to an email whose attachment was not downloaded because of device or app restrictions, using Android 15 if available. Trace the attachment availability and compose flow; done means the user is warned, can load the attachment, and the attachment is not silently lost.
