Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird
Sending a attachment with a long filename is goes horribly wrong
Hello, I have been working on a big issue with sending email form Thunderbird to:
squirrel mail, outlook express, horde and maybe other clients.
While I send a file with a long filename the attachment will not arrive successful by the recipient the filename will be lost but mine type will be correct. In outlook express this mean the file will be renamed to something like D234234.dat a binary file.
I have attachment two documents they are the same but one with a short name and one with a long name. If you send those with Thunderbird to a other client it will go wrong. But in Thunderbird everything seems to go fine.
Also when I sent the same files with squirrel mail, horde, claws mail or outlook the file will be received successful by the recipient.
I have to mail a lot to persons with outlook clients and I have been pulling my hair out why they did not receive my mail attachments correctly.
This tells me there is a probably a big problem with the way the standards are implemented in Thunderbird.
Please fix this bug, so I can safely send mail again to the rest of the not Thunderbird client using world. :-D |

Hello Jelle,
I have sent the attachment you added here (the long titled one), to a hotmail account, seems to show up fine. I am as a result going to set the mt-needtester tag to this report so we can test it on lots of different clients.
Thanks, Alex. |
