128430 - Can't save attachment with Illegal filenames

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 96370

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[andre de werdt]

We are using a cc-mail client in our mail system.
This client has a nasty feature of adding date and time to attachments.

--MIME.PART.BOUNDARY.=.3c7e4307
Content-Type: application/octet-stream;
 name="SRS_V1~2.PDF 4/9/1 11:55:00"
Content-Id: <[e-mail]>
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Description: SRS_V1~2.PDF 4/9/1 11:55:00
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="SRS_V1~2.PDF 4/9/1 11:55:00"
---

Trying to save this type of file isn't possible.(illegal filename)
Double clicking the attachment results in no action. Right clicking and choosing
save all results in error dialogs stating illegal filenames.
Workaround is forwarding the message to my own adres, and using outlook expres
or netscape to save the attachment.
