[Bug 849416]

2020-09-22 Thread Stephane-gourichon-mozbugz
Thanks @MarkusKuhn for taking care of explaining.

I understand that it is vexing when users complain about a problem
caused by a bug in a third party program.

Still, thunderbird not displaying any hint feels wrong.

I'm also aware that https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robustness_principle
can sometimes hurt. I guess the question can only be resolved
pragmatically, like "Do we have the power to force Microsoft Exchange to
fix that?", "Does implementing the wish cause costs, like extra code
complexity?" or "What happen if we refuse to do anything about this
problem experiences by users?".

Anyway, thanks again Markus for enlightening us.

> Don't use Microsoft Exchange if what you really want is proper
RFC822+MIME email. It never was. Spread the word.

I'm already self-hosted and since the hosting company of my freelancing
activity switched to MS Exchange I'm considering to self-host that, too,
for what it's worth.

> Microsoft Exchange bug. This is not a Thunderbird bug.

I'm willing to change the field "Type: defect" to " Type: feature
request" but Bugzilla does not let me do that.

[Bug 849416]

2020-09-22 Thread Stephane-gourichon-mozbugz
Same as Daniel here. I experienced this bug on Linux. 
Can reproduce it now by displaying sample e-mail from comment 4 ( 
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=505024#c4 ) on 68.10.0 (64 bits).

In my case I received automatic invitation e-mails which did not have
any text, just the calendar entry. They appeared as totally blank
e-mail, only showing the e-mail source code allowed me to realize there
was a calendar entry.
