What Happened?

I am trying to save two files i mailed myself from work, and replace the local, out of date, version i have

I do right-click, "save as", which opens a "Save As" dialog where i browse to the old version,
and confirm replacing the old version

"Save As" window disappears, leaving me to think i correctly saved attachment
When in fact the local version is untouched

In Log Output below: error message pointing to AttachmentButton.vala:157

Steps to Reproduce

Save As -> select an already existing file with the same name to replace

Expected Behavior

the old, local version, gets replaced with the one saved from email

OS Version

8.x (Early Access)

Session Type

Secure Session (Wayland)

Software Version

Latest release (I have run all updates)

Log Output

Output when performing the action, with Mail executed in terminal:
Trying to replace /home/teamcons/FROZEN BLOOD.xlsx with email attachment "FROZEN BLOOD.xlsx" 

** (io.elementary.mail:7636): CRITICAL **: 23:10:37.433: AttachmentButton.vala:157: Error opening the file ‘/home/teamcons/FROZEN BLOOD.xlsx’: The file already exists
