Attachment: scree shot of the display of an attached ldif file with non-ascii name

Comment 2

I think this is a generic attachment file name bug, not specific to ldif, right?
I think there is a bug filed for that.

Comment 3

[marina]

i think all problems we had were with file name display on forwarding/replying,
i don't recall a problem with html or txt attached files ( the non-ascii.html or
nonascii.txt display their names OK on the envelope )

Comment 4

[nhottanscp]

dup of bug 75449 (or bug 77217)?

Comment 5

[marina]

those two bugs deal with forwarding or quoting, this one doesn't go that far:
you attach the ldif/csv file and you see the wrong display when you get it (
before forwardsing/editing), if the same function is involved in both scenarios
then it's a dup

Comment 6

[nhottanscp]

Marina, could you try the same procedure with non-ascii.txt?

Comment 7

[marina]

non-ascii txt has no display problem

Comment 8

[nhottanscp]

Reassign to putterman, looks like this is a ldif specific problem.

Comment 9

[scottputterman]

reassigning to ducarroz

Comment 11

[scottputterman]

Jean-Francois, did this get fixed with your attachment fixes?

Comment 12

[Jean-Francois Ducarroz]

no idea.

Comment 13

[marina]

i'll test it with the next build

Comment 14

[Jennifer Mulcaster]

removing jenm as a cc and adding kmurray

Comment 15

[marina]

i don't see this happening any more, probably the general fix for attachment
file names took care of this one as well, though there is another problem of the
contents of the attached non-ascii ldif: the non-ascii card's display is wrong.
I'll see if there is a bug filed on this ( i think we have one) , if not i'll
file one
