OK, here it is: a mail I manually constructed that produces the bug.
The transport headers look a little chaotic because I sent it on a
complete round-trip once, and the sender and receiver are all me, only
under different addresses.
If you fiddle that thing into your mail server and get it from the
server, the following can be seen:
- When you fetch the mail, it's first shown as having an attachment.
As soon as you click on the mail (preview window is active in my TB)
the attachment icon vanishes and the attachment is nowhere to be
found.
- When the two file names in the attachment block contain only
"foo.rtf" (just edit it to try), it works fine.
- When you do "dispatch mail on server" and "open" (context menu) the
mail, the attachment is shown, but with a name of "blahfoo.rtf".
So, the problem is certainly partly on the side of TB, because deleting
the attachment is certainly no great way of handling a format error
in the raw mail text. On the other side, (at least some versions of)
Outlook produce mails containing complete path information for
attached files (I reckon this probably not only the case for rtf files),
thereby triggering the error. Does anyone know if that version
9.0.2416 (9.0.2910.0) is reasonably new? Or is it rather the
MimeOLE version 5.50.4133.2400 that one should be looking for?
I hope the TBUDL list server isn't going to insert lots of funny stuff
in the following text again...
