search: Attachment File Type | is not | PDF, gives strange matches

Hi devs,

searching for not-PDF filetype attachment gives strange matches, see link below.

One can see the search is not pointing out the PDF attachments (they are greyed out), but it is pointing out a file with no other than PDF attachment, though. I can't confirm, but most of the files had had a HTML attachment (from automated info extraction). They were deleted after the download.

Can anybody confirm this behaviour, pls?

Cheers, Z

    "Attachment File Type" "is" searches for attachments with the specified file type. At the moment, "Attachment File Type" "is not" searches for the inverse of that, which will include items of all types (including notes and parent items).

    I've created a ticket to address this.

    For now, add an "Item Type" "is" "attachment" condition to limit it to attachments other than PDFs.
