Comment	> Hi - I'm not sure if I would consider this a bug or not, but I'd like > an expert's opinion ... a user sent me a sample email from an Apple > Mail client, in which he had three lines of text, with a zip file > attached between each line. The message came from Apple Mail > formatted like this: > > > > -- multipart/alternative > > ---- text/plain (just the text lines with some control chars between them) > > ---- multipart/mixed > > ------ text/html > > ------ application/zip > > ------ text/html > > ------ application/zip > > ------ text/html > > > > Now, I would consider this to be "incorrect" from a useability > perspective, since the zip files are inaccessible from the plain > version of the message. But regardless, WebMail does not seem to > render it properly - it only displays the last text/html part, and > lists all the other mixed parts (along with the text/plain part) as > "alternative parts for this section". > > > > So, leaving the weirdness of Apple Mail's formatting aside, is this a > bug in WebMail's MIME handling? I can attach the aforementioned > sample email if you want to see it. > > > > I'm using IMP 4.0.3 (H3), which I know is one point release back, but > my understanding was that all the MIME handling was rewritten in 4.0. > If there have been further revisions to it since 4.0.3, let me know > and I'll just assume this is fixed in a newer release. :) Thanks. > > > >
