[Users] Report Bug to zimlet Attachment Alert (ModernUI)

[Barry de Graaff]

Is it possible with Attachment Alert Zimlet to identify the current 
message or not ?

No, it will see the entire message, but it does not see the difference 
between the newly typed message and the replies. It could be done via 
regex, but it will not be 100% reliable.
