Unable to preview photo attachments in Evolution

Bug Description

When sending an email and adding an attachment it seems I am unable to preview pictures.
There is no option to preview anything except the file name.
I understand now it is not possible to do this and it was suggested I lodge this suggestion for a feature addition in the bug tracker. Hope this is the right place.
Photo sharing is one of the great advantages of email - I am surprised it is not a feature of Evolution.

Thanks for your report, which version of Ubuntu are you running? If i add an Image as an attachment in Gutsy i get a preview in the attachment bar. Not confirming.

I also get a preview of the image in the email attachment bar but I am referring to the possibility of getting a preview before attaching the image(s).
I am using Feisty Fawn version 7.04 of Ubuntu and I think Gnome is the software which is responsible for file searching etc. It is version 2.18.1.
But as I said I am not a techie - just a generally happy punter and user of Ubuntu.
