Bug description:
Hello. I just installed vm-8.0.12. After making
vm-decode-postponed-mime-message in vm-pine.el autoloaded, I have been using
this version of vm comfortably until now. Today, I realized that some (not
all) of the html emails I received cannot be forwarded correctly. What happens
is that when I type "z", then the new frame shows up with two windows.
One is asking to enter to whom I want to forward, i.e.g,
To:
Subject: forwarded message from Scitation TOC Alert
X-Mailer: VM 8.0.12 under 22.1.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu)
etc.
and its buffer title shows the subject of the original email.
Normally, in this window, we see the following:
[ATTACHMENT *vm-forward-buffer*, message/rfc822]
However, the main body part of this window is completely empty.
Then, another window below that shows the INBOX itself.
Interestingly, when I show the buffers by Ctl-x Ctl-b, the forward
window/buffer is not recognized, i.e., it is not listed in the Buffer List.
When I use vm in the non-x mode, i.e., via "emacs -nw -f vm", it's worse. When
I type "z" to such an html email, no visible forward buffer is created, and it
promps to INBOX itself, and the minibuffer says:
Buffer is read-only: #<buffer INBOX> .
I am wondering how to fix this problem. Replying this html email does not have
a problem. Also, forwarding an html email worked without a problem in
vm-8.0.11-581.
Thanks!
BVP
