           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.
