And you need to provide a sample message that is not being forwarded 
correctly.  Forwarding a message with an image displays just fine on 
windows using thunderbird.

OK - I've narrowed the scope of the change to just the 'message' 
content type of a multipart MIME message. Please review the updated 
patch file and let me know if you concur.

Environment:

We are using Horde 3.2 and IMP 4.2 (HEAD) with Courier-IMAP and 
Qmail-Sendmail.



Issue:

When forwarding messages with attachments, non-IMP email clients are 
unable to parse the multipart message due to extraneous carriage 
returns ("\r") in the RFC822 message headers, particularly for 
messages originating from the Wintel platform. We have recreated the 
problem in both Thunderbird and Outlook clients.



Resolution:

The problem can be corrected by removing the extra carriage returns 
from the forwarded message. The attached patch has resolved the issue 
in our environment. We would appreciate your review and feedback.



Thanks for your consideration.
