BUG: felamimail forward pdf attachment does not work

[David_C_Rankin]

Devs,

Sending a pdf as an attachment works. Forwarding an email that has a 

pdf attachment does not work. On forward felamimail incorrectly
considers the attachment as a ‘MESSAGE/RFC822’ instead of a
’pdf/application’. This garbles the pdf. Any workaround?

Here is a screenshot of the pdf forward:

Dear Mr. Rankin,
-current egw?
There might be issues with the mailstructures.
I see problems with this in our errorlog, from time to time.
Any messages in your error-log?
Best regards
Klaus

I'm sorry Klaus, yes current egroupware 1.4.002 (svn 24871). Klaus, 

where is my error-log, I can’t find it in the egw/ structure. There is
nothing in the syslog or mail logs. This is a fairly serious problem.
receiving and forwarding pdfs is a non-trivial percentage or our mail
usage. Let me know if I can perform and tests or look at anything else.

Keep up the great work on a fantastic package!

I was talking about the webservers error-log.
Right now I (think I) know that there can be a difference between the stuff
felamimail shows you
in the view window and the stuff you get, when you click on save (or the
link)
I hope I have time to have a look into that later that week, or the week
after that.
Regards
Klaus

Dear Mr.Rankin,
I tested the issue with a recent 1. and trunk.
I did not find any problems.
After that I had a look at your screenshot once more.
The thing you see as attachment, is the attached mail, not the pdf.
Open the attached mail, by clicking on the link itself,
this way you open the forwarded mail. Within that mail (attached to it)
is most probably the wanted pdf.
regards
klaus

Klaus,

Your right. It does work as it should. It was the confusion in the type 

shown on the forward that was confusing MESSAGE/RFC822 v.
pdf/application. The original complaint came from a user that sends to a
number of Olook users and as we no, there are no standards on that side
of the isle. Thanks for you feedback.
