372983 - Corrupts attached Adobe Acrobat documents when I send them

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[Dave Sailer]

User-Agent:       Opera/9.10 (Windows NT 5.1; U; en)
Build Identifier: Thunderbird version 1.5.0.10 (20070221)

Recipient could not open files. I can, through either copies in "sent mail" folder or by sending email to myself, but there is garbage text in email body, below the message. In the "Attachments" window at bottom of email, the icon preceding each PDF filename has a red X over it.

Garbage text sample: 
%PDF-1.4
%äüöß
2 0 obj
<</Length 3 0 R/Filter/FlateDecode>>
stream
xœÕYI‹3G

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open new email document
2. Attach PDF file(s) via File, Attach, File(s)...
3. Send (Can check files first in the attachment window, or not - makes no difference.)
4. View (1) copy in "sent" folder or (2) CC returned to self, or (3) message sent to self.
Actual Results:  
Described above, under "Details"

Expected Results:  
Transmit attached files normally, as it has always done. Seems to be particular to PDF files.

No special themes or anything. This looks like a new Thunderbird build, if I read the build identifier correctly. No other problems with applications, operating system or hardware are evident.

Ignore the "garbage text" comment. I had "view attachments inline" set. Other comments still apply.

Any chance of a build ID (copy/paste from Help|About)?  This works fine for me using the current 2.0beta nightlies

Haven't see it, but dupe of bug 352581?

No information in the year since last 2 comments were posted, resolving incomplete.

Please comment if the issue still occurs in the latest supported Thunderbird 2.0.0.x or trunk nightlies.
