267041 - too many record delimiters in e-mail (header+body)

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[Stefan Strauch]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1)
Build Identifier: Version 0.8 (20040913)

In some cases of E-Mails, coming into the inbox, the End of line gets 2 
Carriage Return (0x13)(CR) instead of one. The first line in an E-Mail where 
begans ist in one of the header lines. Some times all lines has the double CR. 

So the view of the mail body in the client Mail window front end begans to 
early - with some header lines.
This happens not very often and as i remember only with version 0.8.

Sorry, a the moment i haven't an example E-mail. 
I hope i can bring one next time it appears.


Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Call new messages from provider (POP3)
2. select message in Window front end (3pane) and look in message body window.
3.

Actual Results:  
See header line of the mail such as "xseen: ..." in the mail body window.
Or i see nothing in the message body window. In most case in the subject line 
appears only - and always - '-' as text.

Expected Results:  
Only show mail message body without any header line.
Don't insert second Carriage Return.

Problem seems like Bugzilla Bug 232275

I read in some other bug, that there was a problem with a second newline by 
imap and an active Virus scanner (NAV2000) - -> buffer problem.
I have also running a virus scanner (kaspersky).
I try to find out if it depends on this.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
