655726 - Attachment sizes not being shown for feeds despite size= in the part.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1284004

(Thunderbird :: Message Reader UI, defect)

Description

[alta88]

now the reverse problem, a feed with a mimepart containing size= nevertheless does not show that size in the UI.

here is the message source from article Storyboard: The Grand Unified Theory of Humor in a wired feed:
http://www.wired.com/magazine/feed/

--------------51320158651
Content-Type: audio/mpeg; name="Storyboard_048.mp3"; size=20158651
X-Mozilla-External-Attachment-URL: http://downloads.wired.com/podcasts/assets/Storyboard/Storyboard_048.mp3
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="Storyboard_048.mp3"

This MIME attachment is stored separately from the message.

in looking at this briefly, it seems that by the time the header gets to the messageHeaderSink functions, the size has been turned into size=null.

so the issue seems to be in the mime emitter.
