[Evolution] Document attachments in HTML formatted mail



Hello list,

I'm on RH 8.0.94 (Phoebe), Evolution 1.2.2-1 from Red Hat.

Got a problem when sending office documents (xls, doc and ppt
extensions) as attachments in HTML formatted mail to my Outlook clients.

Apparently the header should contain:

Content-Type: application/<whatever>; name="Cases.xls"
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="Cases.xls"

When I try to send I file I get:

Message: Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="Cases V2.0
Acceptance 20030206_sig.xls"\r\n
    Message: Content-Type: application/vnd.ms-excel; name="Cases V2.0
Acceptance 20030206_sig.xls"\r\n
    Message: Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\r\n

(P.S. captured with etherreal)

In this same box the same message with the same attachments works with 
Mozilla Mail:

Message: Content-Type: application/vnd.ms-excel;\r\n
    Message:  name="Cases V2.0 Acceptance 20030206_sig.xls"\r\n
    Message: Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\r\n
    Message: Content-Disposition: inline;\r\n
    Message:  filename="Cases V2.0 Acceptance 20030206_sig.xls"\r\n
    Message: \r\n

Only difference I see if the Content-Disposition, but don't know enough
to see why this should matter.

Any help is greatly appreciated,

Best Regards,
