I have not seen TB empty a mail exactly, but I have problems with TB!
(or something along the way that affects only TB!) changing the Part
boundaries of messages so the file names do not appear correctly.

For example, I got the following message which when the source is
viewed shows the following boundary:

> [EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@13161
> Content-Type: application/octet-stream; name="Draft"
> Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64

The problem is that the name should actually be "Draft Cheshire
Supporting People Eligibility Criteria v2.8.doc", but it gets chopped
at the first space in the file name, so in the Attachment panel it
appears as "Draft" and I have to rename it before I can open it. This
only happens with one organisation, which suggests a peculiarity with
their setup, but notwithstanding this, Outlook, OE and Popcorn all
report the file name properly.

Unfortunately I do not have an example downladed in another email
client at the moment - I will test it again when one next arrives -
but I recall that this content boundary only appeared to be truncated
in TB!, that it is either TB! or the interaction of TB! and something
else that is causing the problems.

I created a bug report at the time this started affecting me:
