Attachment (mimepart) ordering - attachment missing

Post by matiovsky »

Hi,
I received mail with 3 attachments. Two .txt and one .png. Text files are in .eml file before mail body. So if I turn on "Display Attachments Inline" I see files (all of them) first and then mail body. But there is list of attachments and I cant see first attachment there.(I can see two of them) Does ordering of the mime parts matter? Other mail clients can display it correctly.

Regards

Ordering of the MIME parts normally doesn't matter. Its possible there is something non-standard in the MIME layout that other email clients can tolerate, but Thunderbird doesn't. Sometimes that occurs because it makes assumptions it shouldn't. Try using the show body parts add-on. You don't want to always use view -> message body as -> all body parts as it can have some undesirable side effects, but it is a way to view stuff that for some reason gets ignored.

Could you tell me what is wrong in this message? It looks fine to me and when I change order of these "mimepart_56fe3f365002_2521bd65f0803d" parts it displays ok.

Code: Select all
