Attachments:	Sample message that gets corrupted when forwarded message after being forwarded This is a copy of the message from my sent folder after forwarding

Description Jonathan Felder 2006-01-13 23:57:28 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.0)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

If I attempt to forward a message that shows up in the Message Structure Viewer as multipart/alternative, the message gets corrupted.

These messages seem to be the result of someone sending html email which shows up with both HTML and Plain Text parts.

I am attaching a message where this occurs.  The error is repeatable.  Simply download the attachment, choose file->open from kmail choose the file and then forward it.  When you receive the forward the message should be corrupted.  Also, the message in the sent items folder is also corrupted.

When I do this a large chunk of the top of the message gets cut off.

Can you attach a testcase? The message before forwarding and as forwarded? Please zip the files.

I think this is a duplicate.

message after being forwarded

As requested, this is the result after the message has been forwarded and
received.

I've seen this happen (not to me, but to a colleague).
