Bug Description

Binary package hint: claws-mail-tnef-parser

Received an e-mail with a "winmail.dat" attachment. The tnef parser crashed claws-mail when trying to recieve the message. When the message was still incoming, the tnef parser also crashed claws-mail when claws-mail was opened if opened "online". The tnef parser did not crash claws-mail when opened as "claws-mail --offline", but still crashes when the message is viewed. Now that the message is safely in the inbox, I can open claws mail online, but it still crashes if the message is viewed.

When starting claws mail as "claws-mail --debug" and the crash happens, this is the end of the debug output.

procmime.c:1029:got type image/jpeg for jpg

When I look at the winmail.dat file with a hex editor, it appers to have a jpg embedded somehow.

Claws-mail should not crash, no matter what arrives in a winmail.dat.
