I think I just found the problem. The attachment "name" in the MIME
header is missing the quotes that belong around it. I'm guessing
without those quotes, Emailer reads to the first space, thinks it is
a delimiter and cuts the name there.
The "filename" attribute is properly quote enclosed, but I guess
Emailer doesn't look at it. This may be why other apps aren't seeing
the same failure, they may look at the filename value instead of the
name one.
I'd have to go look it up in the RFCs to see if failure to quote
enclose the name string is technically invalid or not. If it is, then
Apple should fix it... if it isn't, well, they should still probably
fix it :-)
Meanwhile, that doesn't help you right this very minute.
