Description

[[:Aureliano Buendía]]

Attachment: testcase

As you can see in attached testcase, I have this situation:

1. sending to a friend a message [A];
2. your friend reply to with a message [B] that include an HTML signature;
3. when you receive the reply (message [B]) you can see that message [A] is in overflow into signature of message [B]

See attached testcase for an example.

Tested with outlook and windows mail and it work fine :-(

It works fine on my Linux box...
On Windows is broken also in safe-mode.

I don't have Mac. :)
Joe, can you test this.

Also, does this fail in v2?

Ops, I'm sorry Wayne.
Joe can you test if work on Mac?

I test this issue on TB 2.0.0.24 and work fine: it's a regression :-(

Isn't a regression because I have test this issue with a fresh profile (with an "empty" TB using menu-->file-->open --> saved message) and all look fine.

Most probably I have some option wrong in my config editor: I have also migrate my profile from old location with new, copying only necessary files, but "issue" is still here, also in safe-mode).

Anyone as any idea on this?
Maybe one of my old extension as changed this behavior?

Ok It happens because I have set the minimun font sixe to 14 (I use to display messages sans-serif calibri). Setting the minimun font size to 10 all work fine.

Anyway, this for me is a strange behavior (more probably related how TB handle signature file).

I can provide more information if anyone would inspect this but I assume that for the moment we can close the issue as Invalid.

...and sorry for the spam :-)

I'm convinced (at the end) that the problem is related to malformed signature send via outlook by my friend: a <br> is missing at the bottom.

Comment 9

[[:Aureliano Buendía]]

Set to Unconfirmed (:-(, yes, I'm a bit confused)
Set dependency to bug #43829
Set Whiteboard oe-parity flag

ehsan, your idea?

Do we have any evidence that this is a problem with the editor?

Comment 11

[[:Aureliano Buendía]]

I'm not sure, but I suppose that some <br> is ignored by TB because the same message look fine in outlook: maybe the editor should be attach a <br> at the end of the signature?

Ciao.

That's something that should be done in Thunderbird.  It doesn't have anything to do with the editor.
