Hi,

 I've just sent a mail to myself to test and compare the headers. You'll
 find hereafter the headers for both.

 The difference is :

 Received :
   Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1
   Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
   Content-Disposition: inline
  AND
   Content-Type: text/richtext; name=cvyK.rtf
   Content-Description: cvyK.rtf
   Content-Disposition: inline; filename=cvyK.rtf

Here's the problem: Content-Disposition: inline

 Sent by TB! (test) :
   Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
   Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
  AND
   Content-Type: application/msword; name=citations.rtf
   Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
   Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=citations.rtf
  

 So TB! send correctly RTF. But wouldn't it be possible to TB! to
 automatically detect when it's RTF file ?

Not really. TB! does what it has been told: display the attachment
inline. The only thing we could ask for is an option to save such
message parts.

The culprit in your sample is Yahoo, not TB!

Regards,

Markus

THERE the problem is located :-(

The problem are also if there a no inline:

-
--Multipart Fri Jan 12 11:04:13 2001
Content-Type: text/richtext
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
-
This entrys also do not work with TB!


The Problem are that TB! detect the TEXT from TEXT/RICHTEXT and
decide to display this in the text viewer. That's wrong design by TB!
and a Bug. (No IMHO here :-))

 Dirk

Hi Martin,

PG Here  is  the  begining of an (actual) rtf file, as it appears
PG with The Bat! :

 I think this isn't a TheBat problem - it depends which program
 you have linked to the RTF extention in the Windows Explorer
 Options Menu.

The type of the contents are described by the Content-Type entry and
_not_ by the extension.

 I have RTF linked to Word - so if I get such a file I can open it
 with Word without any problem.

I have also linked my *.rtf to Word, but TB! show me the option to
click the rtf attachments only one _some_ rtf files.

The Rule are:

 Show in text viewer:
-Content-Type: text/rtf
-Content-Type: text/richtext
-Content-Type: text/*

 Show as Attachment:
- Content-Type: application/msword(This use TB! is you attach an rtf)
- Content-Type: application/*

cu,
 Dirk

BTW: I reported this bug _long_ time ago, but i still need to go to
Export message and WinZip if i get an rtf attachment. Really bad rit
:-(
