I do not use off-line working. When I'm getting new e-mail items, it happens sometimes that I cant open attachments. Associated application (e.g. MS Word or Adobe Reader) reports that file is corrupted or cant be opened. If there are a number of attachments, I usually cant open the last one. However I'm able to download attachments through web-interface on my e-mail server, and files downloaded in this way can be opened without any problems. I realized that in such situations attachment files saved from Thunderbird are shorter than the original files downloaded through web-interface or by another e-mail client. By pressing "Ctrl+U" combination I can see the e-mail message source and an attachment base64 encoded and it seems that it is not completely downloaded. I experience the above problem since the earlier versions. The same situation happens on different machines, running under Windows XP Professional Edition SP2 and Windows 2003 Server Standard Edition SP1. Note that I do NOT interrupt downloading of the message. Deleting IMAP mail cache also as rebuilding index doesn't help. After the same e-mail is downloaded I cant open attachment and I cant open it after saving. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Send an e-mail with attachment to yourself (I sent an e-mail with 80 Kb .pdf attached) 2. Close Thunderbird if opened 3. Delete IMAP mail cache for the appropriate profile and IMAP account (I deleted all .msf files and containing directory) 4. Open Thunderbird, select Inbox for appropriate IMAP account 5. After message headers are downloaded, select the header of the mail you just have sent. Do not click headers of any other messages before, select exactly the one you sent. Do not interrupt downloading message. 6. Try to open attachment, in my case Adobe Reader reported that file is corrupted 7. Save attachment using "Save As" feature and compare its filesize with original file attached. In case of my 80 Kb PDF it was about 1-2 Kb shorter. Actual Results: Message is downloaded, but trying to open attachment by clicking it, or by using "Open" or "Save As" causes error in associated application. Message source (Ctrl+U) looks truncated. Expected Results: Message should be downloaded fully. User should be able to open attachments.

If download of the attachment completed with no error(both externally and internally), it may be loss of CR/LF because attachment as text or quoted printable instead of Base64. (Q1) Mail form what mailer on what OS? (Q2) What mail header is written for the attachment? > Message source (Ctrl+U) looks truncated. It sounds same phenomenon as Bug 330829.

I'm not sure IMAP server is MS Exchange, perharps not. I don't know how to determine it. For testing I used my own account on the free e-mail service http://www.mail.ru and its IMAP service is imap.mail.ru In bug 384819 the source of problem was interruption of message downloading, but I didn't it. Reindexing or clearing cache helped in that bug, in my case it doesn't. I think it is not DUP, but more likely extension.

Situation is questionable, looks that problem is likely to Bug 92111, except I can't determine exactly, but I more than 80% sure that http://www.mail.ru is not MS Exchange based. There are millions of accounts on this free e-mail web-service, it is very popular in .ru zone, I suppose they use something for Unix platforms, some other indirect factors tend to make me think so. I will try to determine whether they are MS Exchange based to mark it as Bug 92111 DUP or to leave it as another case.

I experienced the problem with IMAP and gmail, and the google groups link above shows similar problems from others with IMAP and gmail. Of other reports I linked above, only one actually reported the problem while using Exchange. All these reports have in common: 1) Downloading mail with attachments 2) corrupt attachment 3) IMAP 4) Using TBIRD 1.5 and newer Another observation: - The problem happens with Exchange and gmail IMAP, perhaps other servers. This bug is definitely related to IMAP, I haven't had any problems with tbird and POP3. You will find a work around reported in two of the links above: "I solved this, with a new value in about:config for Thunderbird (Preferences->Advanced->General->Configuration Editor) or, if you prefer, in pref.js: user_pref(mail.server.serverXX.fetch_by_chunks, false) where XX is the server for imap gmail."

I have several IMAP accounts, one of which is served by servers administered by GoDaddy. No Exchange servers involved in this account. Yesterday, my wife sent me a very important document as an attachment. It was a single page PDF file. The PDF file size is just under a megabyte, about 1.33 MB when base64 encoded. Evidently TB truncated it when TB downloaded it from the IMAP server. The final multi-part boundary at the end of the final part of the multi-part message does not appear in the viewed message source. When I attempt to open the attachment, with Acrobat reader, Acrobat tells me the document has been damaged. The MIME structure of this message is Multi-part/mixed Multi-part/alternative text/plain text/html Application/pdf The last of these parts is truncated. I have tried and tried to get TB to re-download this message, but it will not. This IMAP account is configured in TB to NOT "keep messages for this account on this computer". I don't want it to store messages for this account on this computer's hard drive, at least not when TB is not running. Despite that, TB appears to keep the messages for all the IMAP folders for this account in a single file named ~/Library/Thunderbird/Profiles/XXXXXXXX.default/global-messages-db.sqlite That file contains the truncated copy of this mail message. I suspect that if I could get TB to forget that copy, it might download a complete copy. But it's not clear how to get TB to forget the copy of that message, or of all messages that belong in that IMAP folder, from that db. I tried "rebuild index" to no avail. I wasted damn near a whole day trying to read that message. Finally I gave up and had her call and read it to me. I was later able to read the pdf file with an OLD copy of SeaMonkey on another computer. I want to know: - how to get TB to expunge that truncated copy of that message - how to get TB to download an untruncated copy and print it - how to get TB to STOP storing copies of the messages in the IMAP folders for this account in global-messages-db.sqlite Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunderbird/+bug/220991/comments/31 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2010-07-02T02:08:49+00:00 Nelson-bolyard wrote: My wife sent the message using Microsoft Office Outlook 12.0, which sounds very much like bug 301541.
