User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7b) Gecko/20040316

When attaching a PHP file to a message, it is added as mime type text/html and
content disposition inline (I don't know if this is right or wrong, the
text/html doesn't sound right). When Moz 1.7b is displaying this as inline, the
entire file is not displayed.

Source of message is:

Content-Type: multipart/mixed;
 boundary="------------000706050009050508080600"

This is a multi-part message in MIME format.
--------------000706050009050508080600
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Actual inline display of message is:

[test-attach]

   ENTRY; } ?>

--

test1.txt

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. attach gen.php attachment (will upload next) to message
2. send it to yourself
3. view message in moz mail 1.7b or thunderbird 0.5

Comment 3

[Mike Cowperthwaite]

Found a dupe.  It's likely, as the dupe notes, that the "corrupt display" is due 
to the attachment being given a type of text/html.
