User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050908 Firefox/1.4
Build Identifier: Thunderbird 1.5 beta 1

Some pdf attachments become garbled when viewing the message on an IMAP server
with TB 1.5 beta 1. Even when saving the pdf-files, they can not be opened.
Accessing the same IMAP mailbox with TB 1.06 gives no problem. Problem is
consistent, but not present for all pdf attachments.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open mail with TB 1.5 beta 1
2. Open or save pdf attachments
3. Acrobat gives an error

Actual Results:  
Acrobat Reader opens, but does not display the file and give an error message
instead.

Expected Results:  
Normal display of pdf attachment in Acrobat Reader
Attached file Working PDF
Attached file Buggy PDF file
Using TB 1.5RC1 since a few days, I get this exact problem viewing PDF's in emails coming from an IMAP server.
I am attaching 2 files, one downloaded using IMP (which displays fine) and another one downloaded using TB (Acrobat spits "There was a problem reading this document (111)"

Hope this helps.
(sorry about posting the attachments before this comment)
Similar behavior noted in recently updated (version 1.5 (20051201)) Thunderbird and a university pop server.  The pdf files that were damaged were interactive forms.  The same files retrieved from the same email with multiple recipients using other email clients was fine.

Same problem as Bug 317009?
Check your mail source which the corrupted PDF file is attached.
Mail was sent through an exchange server, using quoted-printable. Issue seems indeed to be the same as Bug 317009.
