Summary: attaching files with long lines causes message loss
Product: kmail
Version: 1.6
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS/Version: Solaris
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: kmail-devel@kde.org
ReportedBy: tk@CeBiTec.Uni-Bielefeld.DE
Version: 1.6 (using KDE KDE 3.2.0)
Installed from: Compiled From Sources
Compiler: gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (release)
OS: Solaris
I've tried to attach a text file (HTML to be precise) with very long lines \
to a recipient with a mailbox on a cyrus 2.1.x IMAP server which imposes a \
line length limit of ~8k (which is way beyond the 998 chars required by \
RFC2822, section 2.1.1). The message was rejected with the (misleading) \
message "5.6.0 Message contains NUL characters (in reply to end of DATA \
command" but since the error mail contains a copy of the original message, \
it could not be delivered back to me (mailbox at the same site/system).
Apart from the postmaster, nobody was notified of the delivery failure.
My test setup:
postfix-2.0.14 delivering via LMTP to a cyrus-2.1.12 "murder".
to reproduce:
try to send a message with a text file attachment (> 8k chars/line) via \
KMail to a cyrus user.
