65536 - drag'n'drop of message may damage attachment

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 62992

(MailNews Core :: Backend, defect)

Description

[Oliver Klee]

From Bugzilla Helper:

Sometimes a drag'n'drop of a mail with an attachment may replace an 0x0d0a in
the attachment with an 0x0d000a. This results in a crash when trying to view the
move message (see bug 53447).


Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
Drag'n'drop a message with an attachment from the inbox to any folder.

Actual Results:  The message gets moved and the attachment gets screwed up.

Expected Results:  The message gets moved without any problems.

I have a hard time trying to reproduce it right now. I don't know if it happens
only when trying to drag'n'drop from the _inbox_, and whether it makes any
difference if the message is moved or drag'n'dropped.

The mail file(s) may be fixed by replacing all 0x0d000a with 0x0d0a. To the
average user, this is not an option, thus making the moved message unviewable.
