Title:
  Forum post downloads should be publicly available in a public forum

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  In a public forum (such as the mahara community forum), posts are
  readable when users are not logged in. However, any files attached to
  a post are only available when logged in.

  As a result, you can only see images posted inline in a forum post
  when logged in. This also affects users receiving posts in e-mail, and
  through RSS feeds.

  Arguably, if a user receives e-mail updates for forum posts, then this
  requires a separate resolution since not all groups are public groups.
  If a user is in a non-public group and receives e-mail alerts for a
  forum post with an inline image, then we should probably re-write the
  location of the image and include it as an attachment to the e-mail.
