Public bug reported: When I attempt to save attachments received through my gmail imap account, the attachments are truncated. This occurs with many types of attachments including text files, zip files, pdf files and doc (ms word document) files.
Saving these same attachments via web mail (Firefox -> gmail.com web mail) saves the files in their completeness without truncation. The most recent occurrence was with a text file. The file saved through thunderbird was 192 bytes shorter than the same attachment saved with Firefox and gmail web-mail. This is a reasonably new issue, as I have been using Thunderbird to manage my gmail account for years without problems. I am running Thunderbird 2.0.0.24 under Ubuntu Linux 8.04.
