Steps to reproduce
- use any other e-mail client to create a mail + attachment
- save to shared IMAP draft folder
- open mail in K-9
- either send or save as draft again
- the attachment ist gone
Expected behavior
The attachment shouldn't be removed.
Actual behavior
The attachment is removed.
Nasty if you prepare a mail on your PC to edit/send it later on mobile and you don't have the attached file available on mobile.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported flow: create a message with an attachment in another client, save it to a shared IMAP draft folder, then open and save or send it in K-9 Mail. Trace the draft and attachment handling from that entry point, and confirm the attachment remains available after the draft is saved or sent.
