Did you also test for the case where folder data is NOT cached for offline use? In the past, there have been issues causing corruption of attachments when offline caching is not used. For example, receive a mail message with a largish attachment, read only the text part (attachments are never downloaded), then forward the whole message including attachment to another address. Receiver gets only "This part will be downloaded on demand" instead of attachment. Other example: receive message that fulfilled the criteria for the bug discussed here to cause repeated downloading, but in a folder that has offline caching disabled. Open attachments. Attachments are corrupt. Those errors resurfaced at the same time the issue discussed in this bug appeared, and showed the same phenomena (like a wrong message size in the message list, a repair of the folder temporarily fixing it). I think it is the same bug but manifested in a different way because of the different setting of offline caching. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1074260 Title: Thunderbird heavy IMAP traffic downloading messages To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunderbird/+bug/1074260/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
