[Fwd: [Evolution] bug: broken headers (bug hunting season opened)]

[guenther <guenther rudersport de>]

forward( cheers() );

Just to demonstrate that bug even better -- this message looks like the
screenshot here, same bug.

And some additional info:
I see those broken headers regularly, as I am postmaster of a domain. A
lot of the SPAM (returned from the .forward addresses) getting to
postmaster has the same bug.

cheers( folks && coders );

I posted about problems with broken headers some weeks ago. Now here is
some evidence for that bug:

 http://guenther.dyndns.org/evolution/bug-broken-headers.png

Thats how the mail is displayed. The mail was forwarded by me to the
list. I really wonder, that nobody else complained about that.

Forwarded with Evo 1.2.1 on a Mandrake 9.0 box. I use an IMAP server, if
that matters (shouldn't though).

The source from the IMAP mbox and how Evo sees it:

 http://guenther.dyndns.org/evolution/bug-broken-headers-mbox-source.txt
 http://guenther.dyndns.org/evolution/bug-broken-headers-evo-source.txt


The flaw seems to be at the newline after the Content-Type header in the
attached mail. IMHO it's not specific to that special type, as I have
seen that with other type but same header.


As a second bug: What on earth happened to that mailing list signature??
Why does Evo _not_ display that, even with message/view/source?

Maybe that's related to the bug discussed the last days with Evo not
displaying anything at all?


Can anyone verify that? I will write bug report then...
