Description
Steps to reproduce
- In a file explorer, share a file.
- K9 is proposed in the list of app for sharing.
Actual behavior
- When K9 is chosen an new composition screen is launched but without the attached file
Expected behavior
- The file is attached in the new composition screen
Note that selecting the same file from the composition screen works but not from the file explorer (Amaze here).
It was working before the 7 update.

K-9 Mail 702 - F-droid
Samsung Galaxy S5

Done means selecting K-9 from the share list opens a new composition with the shared file attached, while direct attachment from the composition screen continues to work.
