Hi All,

     I have a customer running Apple OS 9.2 and Mozilla 1.0.0.20020529.  
She can eMail anything except attachments.   When she tries to, she 
gets the following error message:

             Sending of message failed.  Please verify that your Mail & 
             Newsgroup settings are correct and try again. 

     This is extremely critical to the customer, as she needs to be able 
to send artwork to various clients and vendors.  (I am hoping this is 
only a configuration problem.)  And, yes, she did eMail me the error 
message, so I am positive her eMail is working.

Many thanks,

Hi All,

  The PC clients on the network (w95, w98, ME w2kp, ME-p, ME-h)
with Mozilla 1.0.0.20020530 are working perfectly.  The one
Linux Mozilla is working well too (sorry, I don't know its
version).

I hope you know that have no end-user support and we have only builds for testing.

Attachimg mails should work or we would get many bugs.
This must be something special.

Can you please look if bug 147075 and/or bug 118411 could be the problem ?

no crash or dataloss -> major
Severity: critical → major
this can also sound like bug 137846 -> bug 95481
Did the attachments contain any "foreign" characters?
Hi All,

   You called that one!  Yes it did.  It contained a date with 
corresponding "/" marks.  Please mark as a duplicate of 95481.

Many thanks,

REOPEN:

I don't think this is a dupe. Isn't "/" valid in MacOS 9? That means that you
have a file-reading, "/" escaping problem...

Even if this problem is solved by way of HFS+ file reading code, it is still a
valid bug in the current filesystem and build.

If it's slashes, then this is a dup of bug 147075.
