problem with attachments
Mozilla Thunderbird (at least since version 1.5) and KMail encode non-ascii
attachment filename like this: Content-Type: application/x-zip-compressed; name*=ISO-8859-2''yk51x86_v851%20%B163.zip Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 Content-Disposition: inline; filename*=ISO-8859-2''yk51x86_v851%20%B163.zip OE can't understand it and so it gives the attachment a generic name ATT#####.dat where ##### is some number. Is there any patch/kb article/whatever to resolve the problem? Thanks in advance, -- Regards, Tomasz Grobelny |
problem with attachments
I'm not aware of any update for OE.
A couple of notes: The reason you get the ATT##### is because of the * at the end of name* and filename* keywords. OE is looking for them without the *. Not finding a name it makes one up. You get the .DAT when OE can't find the Content-Type: in the registry. If the MIME type is properly registered, OE will create the correct file extension. On my PC with your example, OE comes up with ATT####.ZIP for the file name. -- Mike - http://pages.prodigy.net/michael_santovec/techhelp.htm "Tomasz Grobelny" wrote in message ...
