Attachments on IMAP account (and the message that contains them) become garbage regularly

[Carlos Moffat]

Hi,

Every day or two, I get an email with an attachment (I've noticed this particularly with a Google Apps Gmail account) that becomes garbage. By that, I mean the attachment is shown inline (which might be binary stuff if it's a word document), and the rest of the message, including headers, it's messed up.

The only "solution" seems to be to remove the corresponding INBOX.msf, but of course this means I have to have TB rebuild that file very often.

Thanks.

Hello Carlos,
Thank you for submitting this bug and reporting a problem with Thunderbird.

You made this bug report in 2012 and there have been several versions of Ubuntu and Thunderbird since then.

Could you confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the ticket?
Or, if it is still a problem, could you run the following (only once):
apport-collect 921571

and upload the updated logs and and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue.

Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu and Thunderbird better.

G
