146839 - Mozilla not properly interpreting eFax documents

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 120327

(MailNews Core :: Attachments, defect)

Description

[Matt Roca]

(Using Mozilla 1.0 RC3)

An eFax document is sent via e-mail as an attachment with a name like "ee85cc20.efx"
Mozilla seems to interpret this as an exe file.  If I choose "Open", it asks
where I would like to save it, and defaults the name to "ee85cc20.efx.exe".  If
I choose "Save As", it also wants to save it as a .exe file.  "Save All" will
properly save the file as a .efx file.

The proper behavior would be to allow the system to open the .efx file with the
associated "eFax viewer".  The same attachment can be opened in Outlook Express
using the assigned viewer.
