134382 - Cannot save attachments from IMAP server

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 107221

(MailNews Core :: Attachments, defect)

Description

[Olli Männistö]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:0.9.9) Gecko/20020311
BuildID:    2002031104

Saving email attachments does not work if the email is stored on an IMAP server.
When I select the attachment and choose "save as", I get the normal file dialog
and no error messages. However, no file is created. If I repeat "save as" a few
times, I get a 0-byte file which mozilla leaves open. Saving the entire message
works from the IMAP server without problems.

If I move the email from server folder into a local folder, I can save the
attachment without problems. I cannot move the message back into an IMAP folder
from a local folder. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. send myself a test post with attached file
2. try to save the attached file

Actual Results:  No file is saved

Expected Results:  See an attachment file in the directory of my choosing.

Reporter: Do you know what the name is of the IMAP software? (like: uw-imap,
Exchange, Courier, ..)

folders into remote, no problem.

I am experiencing this same problem on Mozilla 1.0 RC2. I am connecting to
MailSite IMAP server running on Windows NT 4.0. The greeting from the server says:

* OK  MailSite IMAP4 Server 3.4.2.0 ready
