274837 - Bugzilla email interface should be able to handle/strip HTML emails

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 93941

(Bugzilla :: Bugzilla-General, enhancement)

Description

[Erik Anderson]

Trying to get bugzilla email interface usable for our installation...

Proposed patch tells bug_email.pl / bugzilla_email_append.pl to ignore HTML
aspects of multipart/alternative emails.

Attachment: Patch to BugzillaEmail.pm, bug_email.pl, bugzilla_email_append.pl

* Factors out dump_entity (which is 99% similar between bug_email.pl and
bugzilla_email_append.pl)
* When encountering multipart/alternative, first looks for a text/plain and
chooses to parse only that part.  If a text/plain doesn't exist, choose the
first part and parse only that part.

Not sure if this is the best way to handle @attachments, which are used by
bug_email (as a global) but not at all by bugzilla_email_append.  Just noticed
that this patch is similar to bug 176190.

Doesn't really affect the interface with Bugzilla in my opinion, should stay
out of the way of the ever-pending re-integration.
