i have received a mail with zip attachment. when i click on it, i get an error that no app has registered for this type.

i think this should work out of the box.

edit: actually even the filebrowser etc cant do that. it seems there is no registered app in sailfish for zip files

Filecase from repos handles zip from memory

but then you have to navigate into the correct subfolder in Downloads\mail_attachments and this is rather time consuming.

True that you have to navigate manually to find zip file, but until its implimented to work thru mail, Filecase is a good work around

would be sufficient to register filecase for zip files then
