Summary: All attachments given text/plain mimetype on IMAP
accounts
Product: kmail
Version: unspecified
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs kde org
ReportedBy: huntedhacker tiscali co uk
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.
