Hi.

I have sqwebmail-4.0.7 (problem also with sqwebmail-4.0.6). When I send an email with an attachment with spaces in its name and read that email on Outlook (any version) the attachment name es changed to something like att000004.dat, I have noticed that if the file extention is described on mime.types file the file name is changed to something like att000004.mp3 (mp3 file listed on mime.types file). No problem sqwebmail to sqwebmail or outlook to outlook.

I have looked in http://www.mail-archive.com sqwebmail archives and there are various reports with this problem with versions of sqwebmail 3.X but no answer or tip to solve this.

Looks like it isn't a sqwebmail problem code but maybe from a prerequisite or dependency program or library in the host system or even an elaborated ./configure or use of an especific auth-module.

I used to work with sqwebmail-3.3.2 on Suse 7.1 and vpopmail-5.2.1 without any problem, a couple of months ago I upgrated many things in a diferent server (the only thing that survives since then is a tgz with my Maildirs so all the instalation was from zero), my new environment is:

SuSE 9.0 2.4.21-144-smp4G i386 vpopmail 5.4.5 with oracle (It shuldn't have to concert with this problem but, isn't it?) sqwebmail-4.0.7

./configure --enable-cgibindir=/home/apache/cgi-bin --enable-imagedir=/home/apache/htdocs-webmail/webmail --with-db=gdbm --with-authvchkpw --without-authpwd --without-authshadow --without-authpam --without-authuserdb --without-authldap --without-authdaemon --without-fcgi --without-ispell --enable-https=auto --enable-hardtimeout=3600 --enable-softtimeout=1200 --enable-autopurge=7 --enable-maxpurge=14 --enable-mimetypes=/etc/mime.types --with-maxargsize=1048576 --with-maxformargsize=3145728 --with-maxmsgsize=13107200 --enable-changepass --with-gzip --with-calendar --with-calendarpurge=30 --with-trashquota

The mail file inside the maildir with a problematic attachment looks like:

---cut begin--- Subject: test 14 attach Date: Fri, 03 Sep 2004 16:35:17 -0000 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="=_0_13980_1094247328"; charset="utf-8"

This is a MIME-formatted message. If you see this text it means that your mail software cannot handle MIME-formatted messages.

--=_0_13980_1094247328 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

ni=C3=B1o =C3=A1rbol

---cut ends---

Somebody please please please help me.
