This manual page documents briefly the claws-mail-attach-warner package. This manual page was written for the Debian™ distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. claws-mail-attach-warner is a plugin (loadable module) for the ClawsMail mailer. It's aimed at prevention of forgetting attachments, by warning the user if some attachment is mentioned in the mail text but no attached file is found in the composed mail. Mentions are found by simple regex matching, although some care is taken to avoid false positives. In the plugin configuration panel the user can define the expressions or words to be looked for in the message text.
