With IMAP accounts without offline use checkmark, when forwarding an e-mail with attachment, we still see the problem that the base64 coded attachment is replaced with the fixed string:
Thisbodypartwillbedownloadedondemand This is a wellknown problem. I understand how it occurs, but I cannot understand why the coders are unable to fix it or at least work around it. It seems easy enough to check for the occurrence of this string when preparing the mail for transmission, and download the attachment at that time. What we get reported is that people receive mail with corrupted attachments (low-level error message from the program that tries to open it, e.g. Word or PDF program), and when tracking things down it is always a forwarded message that was forwarded without looking at the attachment. It is nasty because the person having the problem has to go back to the person who forwarded the message and ask to try again. Very unprofessional when this happens external to the company. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
