Andreas Veithen updated WSCOMMONS-418:
--------------------------------------

    Fix Version/s: Axiom 1.2.9
       Issue Type: Bug  (was: Improvement)

This is actually not only relevant for the mail transport, because the SwA 
specification doesn't require the presence of a Content-Id header in each 
attachment. Indeed, the spec says:

[quote] A "SOAP message package" contains a primary SOAP 1.1 message. It may 
also contain additional entities that are not lexically within the SOAP message 
but are related in some manner. [...] The primary SOAP 1.1 message in a message 
package may reference the additional entities. [...]

Referenced MIME parts must contain either a Content-ID MIME header structured 
in accordance with RFC 2045, or a Content-Location MIME header structured in 
accordance with RFC 2557.[/quote]

Thus the specification clearly allows attachments that are not referenced by 
the SOAP message, and these attachments are not required to have Content-Id 
headers. The behavior you describe therefore violates the SwA spec and should 
be considered as a bug.

> Axiom MIME parser does the content-id validation for the MIME parts as 
> required by MTOM & SwA..Also the Attachments API is designed as a map 
> (content-id, attachment) with this assumption.. 
> But now the mail transport is going to use the same MIME parser and they have 
> valid messages which does not have content-id's for MIME parts. But IMHO 
> trying to generalize all axiom/Axis2 attachment API's would be a too much of 
> an API change at this point of the project... 
> Attached is a quick patch to generate a UUID in place of the missing 
> content-id... But with this we are going to miss the content-id validation...
> WDYT?
