BB> When a message with multiple attachments arrives, if the attachments BB> are Word files or JPGs, I can count on some file corruption. The JPGs BB> will be unreadable or partly readable, for example. This is virtually BB> guaranteed to happen if there are 3 or more attachments.
BB> When the attachment is a zip file, it always seems to arrive intact. I don't use any sort of antivirus software on my system, so it isn't that. I don't use any sort of firewall software on my system, so it isn't that. I've seen every type of file corrupted, be it a .JPG, .PPT, .ZIP, .DOC... you name it, it has arrived corrupted at one time or another. (Not all attachments arrive corrupt; the larger the attachment, the more likely the corruption is to occur.) I have seen it occur when there has been just a single attachment and when there are multiple attachments. Recently, I created a folder called "Test", into which I put several messages which are "corrupt" in TB!. I zip'd the Test folder (containing the .TBB and .TBI files) and mailed it to several TB! users. When they created a "Test" folder and placed the .TBB/.TBI files from my .zip in it, they were able to experience the corruption first-hand. Forwarding a message with a corrupt attachment to a non-TB! user always results in an attachment that is perfectly valid for the recipient, meaning that the message was received, and stored, without any errors. Others have said that forwarding the message back to yourself also works, although I haven't tried it. What I usually do is export the message as a "Unix mailbox" and re-import it, and that USUALLY corrects the problem (but not always). Because of the import/export, I end up with two seemingly identical messages in my Inbox, but one is corrupt and one works. This most certainly appears to be a problem with TB!. I used 'Help > Feedback > Bug Report' to submit a bug (an even included my zip file of the corrupted "Test" folder) but never received any acknowledgement or any sort of response from RIT Labs.
