81478 - Forwarded Messages w/attached file Not Working Correctly

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(MailNews Core :: MIME, defect, P1)

Description

[Rafael Ebron (:rebron)]

In mail, I get a forwarded message that has an attachment.  I get the attachment
as Part 1.2 and can only view the message part of the forwarded message not the
attached file.  Can't view the attachment either as a click on the attachment to
view, or as a click to save as and then view on the desktop.  

The attached files that I've seen this in are Word docs and powerpoint docs.

Expected result is that I get the attached file which came with the forwarded
message as a link.

Seeing this with Excel files, so I'm thinking with any document Mozilla is
trying to read it.  Here's an example: (I put an x on somethings to keep it
somewhat confidential)

Return-path: <[e-mail]>
From: [e-mail]
Full-name: x
Message-ID: <[e-mail]>

I tried to reproduce this with .xls .doc and .ppt attachments sent by NS 6.1 and
forwarded 2 times, the attachment is listed in the attachment pane.  I did this
again sending with AOL client 7.0 same attachment and then forwarded it 2x,
again I saw the attachment listed in the attachment pane. I compared the message
source with the data below and it's looks the same with same content types. 
Rafael do you still see this please note the build date.  I tried this with the
6.1rtm (dated 7-26-01 after the reported date), 6.2 rtm and current commercial
build.  There may be something I'm missing in trying to reproduce it.

Added michaell. Mike, do you still see this on messages forwarded to you from
the AOL client?

Comment 4

[kmurray1115]

it has something to do with the AOL client and Mac, I bet. We need to spend a
few more cycles reproducing this, but it should remain high on our list.

Comment 6

[Jean-Francois Ducarroz]

Using the attached test case, I am not able to reproduce the problem on WinNT
using  a recent debug build. I've tried both forward inline and forward as
attachment. WFM
