Content-ID must not contain unquoted colon characters
-----------------------------------------------------
Key: AXIS2-4037
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-4037
Project: Axis 2.0 (Axis2)
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Valery Ushakov
Priority: Minor
Asix2 generated MTOM messages use content ids of the form
cid:1.urn:uuid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
when that content id is manifested in a MIME multipart message the resulting
headers is
Content-ID <1.urn:uuid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
but that header violates RFC syntax for Content-ID.
RFC2045 (MIME, Part 1) defines Content-ID as
"Content-ID" ":" msg-id
RFC2822 defines msg-id as
msg-id = [CFWS] "<" id-left "@" id-right ">" [CFWS]
where no unquoted variant of if-left can NOT contain colon character (see
RFC2822 for details and exact productions).
This is an interoperability problem for systems that try to parse Axis2
generated messages using MIME parsers that are not happy about those illegal
colons.
Note that I'm not using axis2 myself, so unfortunately I cannot provide any
further details, but it looks like axis2 has always been generating such
content-ids. I'm filing this to find out if this is indeed a bug in axis2 or
if I'm misreading relevant standards and I need to fix the MIME parser I use.
