+Using the attachment plugin, when filecheck was checking the mime-type of the attachment before allowing the attachment to be removed, it was returning with an error saying that the mime-type of the file was "unknown" (when the mime-type definitely was known!)
+
+It turns out that the filecheck plugin couldn't find the file, because it was merely using the $pagesources hash, rather than finding the absolute path of the file in question.
+
+The following patch fixes the problem:
