Re: [Evolution] issue: HTML pail with inline images



No, evolution *does* respect the inline disposition. I'm not sure why
it's not displaying it, but I can tell you that the mailer that wrote
those headers is broken with respect to MIME.

First off, a Content-Id value should be unique and *not* the name of the
image file.

Secondly, the Content-Disposition header is completely broken... it
should be "Content-Disposition" not "ContentDisposition".

Thirdly, the value after "inline;" should be
"filename=postcard-header.gif" not "postcard-header.gif" since
parameters must be in a name/value pair. We are rightfully parsing
"postcard-header.gif" as a parameter name that has no value.

hi,

just noticed an issue with evo not rendering inline images in an HTML
mail. (outlook and netscape/mozilla mail do show the inline images of
this mail)

the images are embedded as:

Content-Type: image/gif
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-ID: postcard-header.gif
ContentDisposition: inline; postcard-header.gif

Seems like evolution does not respect the "inline" Content Disposition

Bug? Feature?
