Bug Description

Binary package hint: newpki-server

The email sent by NewPKI after issuing a new certificate are not
correctly formatted.
This result in mail client (tested: Thunderbird on Ubuntu and Windows,
KMail in Debian Squeeze) unable to identify the differents parts of the
email.
So, user is unable to :
 * See its certificate passphrase ;
 * Retrieve the PKCS#12 certificate that he received.

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

You made this bug report in 2009 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 476384

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.

Thanks for pinging. Sadly, I am not using NewPKI for years now, so I have no way to assert whether this is still an issue or not :/.
