Description Alex Merry 2008-03-11 16:16:22 UTC 
Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc 4.2.3 
OS:                Linux

With emails of a certain size (for example, 40K and over, but not with a 7K email), all the attachments are listed as having mimetype text/plain.  This means that PDF documents and JPEG files, for example, are saved incorrectly.

The attachments show up fine when I use the webmail interface to the imap server.

Also, choosing View->View Source apparently causes the email to be read correctly, and the mimetypes given in the message pane suddenly correct themselves (for example, from text/plain to PDF Document).

The attachments are also displayed correctly when accessed from a local folder, rather than online IMAP.

Related too, or the same, as bug 158632. Will look into it.
