Hello,
We've noticed that attachments in incoming email from certain hosts were
not displaying in IMP. This seems to occur when the mail is sent without
the name= parameter set in the Content-type area of the MIME info. For
example:
--This will not display:
Content-Type: application/msword
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="document.doc"
--
--This will display:
Content-type: application/msword;
name="document.doc"
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="document.doc"
Content-transfer-encoding: base64
As I understand it, name= in Content-type is deprecated, though most
clients seem to still use it.
Any ideas about this? Could this have anything to do with the Pear module?
Thanks,
