| Description | Emacs/Gnus can forward mail with the outer mail Content-Type of message/rfc822 rather than the usual multipart seen in other MUAs when forwarding-as-attachment. This causes a few rendering problems in SOGo:
- Usually the entire email is shown, including headers, even inner attachment base64 data.
- Usually inner attachments also show correct download links (in addition to the base64 data).
When I say usually, I mean when the attached mail has Content-Type of multipart/mixed.
When the attached email has Content-Type of multipart/signed, the display has the following artifacts:
- Terse email headers are shown (which is good, but opposite of behavior explained above)
- The first inner-part is not rendered at all.
- None of the parts are rendered at all.
- There is a download link that has some of the characteristics of a normal non-forwarded PGP/MIME application/pgp-signature MIME part (e.g. "Untitled-2 (203)" is the link label), however the link is a broken URL ("/SOGo/so/0" which results in a page saying "object not found: 0")

| Additional Information | This problem was initially brought to my attention when I friend of mine reported that he couldn't see any of the email content of a message I forwarded to him. He also said that the content did appear once he clicked reply.
I have tried several combinations of MUA, attachments, with or without RFC 3156, and forwarding styles, including Outlook and Thunderbird (which do not share the problems described above). |
