Summary: Squirrelmail and FelamiMail (eGroupware) cannot
always retrieve attachments.
Description:
Both clients do show their symbol for an attachment in the messages list,
but after opening the email it is not possible to open the attachment.
Attachment is either shown as 0 bytes (squirrelmail often does this with
message/rfc822 type attachments) or there no indication of an attachment
at all.
Currently it looks as if this happens more often on multipart/alternative
messages than on multipart/mixed messages, but I could be wrong about
that.
Thunderbird *does* show all the attachments that I've tried that were
missing from Squirrelmail and FelamiMail.

Also, what versions of Glib and Gmime are you running, in case this is
actually a Gmime parsing issue?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
stanley - 22-Aug-06 08:21
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I am using glib 2.10.3 and gmime 2.1.19.

Stanley, could you please provide us with a message that does this for you?
I haven't been able to reproduce this bug.

Hello Paul!
I try to create a test case for you.

The file sm_attachment_failure.gzip contains a message which squirrelmail
1.5.2-cvs Snapshot (squirrelmail-20061003_0000-CVS) failed to process
correctly. Instead of downloading an attacment of a forwarded message, it
downloads the whole forwarded message.
Message generated as such:
2 plaintext messages with odt attachments sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] from
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Composed with Thunderbird 1.5.0.7.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] forwarded both messages with MS Outlook 2000 as plaintext
back to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
The message dump is from dspam in debugging mode. This is a copy of the
message, that was inserted by dspam into dbmail.
DBMail SVN version from July.
I'd say it's a SM bug. I'll try to make a message, which Thunderbird fails
to process correctly too.

The problem happens only, if you request a part by id from the forwarded
message.
Thunderbird can display such messages, because TB downloads the whole
forwarded message and parses the message itself. But SM and FeLaMiMail
requesting a specific part of the forwarded message. And that's where
dbmail fails. dbmail does not deliver the requested part, but the whole
forwarded message.
Somehow dbmail does not keep track correctly of the internal part numbers.

This might or might not be related.
Attached file 2_docs.gz contains a message, which attachments Thunderbird
fails to get. But when you open one of the forwarded mails, either
doc2.eml or doc1.eml with TB. And then try to save the attachements, TB
succeeds.
SM fails completely.
This is Thunderbird 1.5.0.7 and latest freshly compiled dbmail svn.
>From the body on the message:
This message contains 2 other messages with MS Word .doc attachments.
These two messages are forwarded with MS Outlook 2000, using HTML and MS
Word as the editor (default MS Outlook settings). This is the body of the
new third message. The first two messages were created in the same way
with MS Outlook in HTML in a MS Word window.

Guys,
I've checked in some changes that (hopefully) fix this. Plz try svn-head.
