Thanks for the report @miau, and also the helpful tip for how to trigger the issue @pherjung.

I’ve created an internal bug report about this and so have tagged it as “tracked”. If we have updates to share on it we’ll do our best to post them here.

Any news? It is still broken in 4.5. Sharing to Jolla Mail or copy to clipboard is also not working.
