244433 - Sanitizer (Simple HTML) suppresses inline images via Content-Location

Status: NEW

(MailNews Core :: MIME, defect)

Description

[Mike Cowperthwaite]

Carrying this over from bug 129285.  See attachment 72795 [details] from that bug.

HTML messages can inline images that have been attached to the bug.  The <img> 
tags can refer to the attachments in one of two ways: using a cid: URI, or using 
a simple path indicator.  For the former, the attachment must have a Content-ID: 
header; for the latter, a Content-Location header.  Reference RFC 2557:
  http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2557.html

When viewing such a message as Original HTML, both techniques work fine.  When 
viewing as Simple HTML, only the cid:-specified images are shown; images using 
the relative path to Content-Location-specified images are not shown, just their 
'alt' text (if any) is rendered.
