Description

I assume step 1 requires "Forward as Attached" as opposed to quoted or inline? Confirming, I just reproduced it myself using "Forward as Attached". Looks like the issue was fixed in a subsequent release. Unfortunately the patch appears quite large and invasive and the author of the patch is on vacation for the next three weeks. Note the attachment is not lost, I think it's just not being read and/or parsed from the cache properly. I found the "lost" attachment intact under ~/.evolution/mail/mapi/<<account-id>>/folders/.../Inbox/cache Upstream bug: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=599311 Upstream commit: http://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution-mapi/commit/?id=f0376d03f32308a0d403f20ed7e53879a222ebd4 Punting this to 6.1 since the author of the upstream patch is still on vacation and patch itself is too invasive to commit at the 11th hour. Development Management has reviewed and declined this request. You may appeal this decision by reopening this request. Reopening for 6.1. Patch should be applicable (maybe with some changes). It was only getting common functions into a util file, and then used them from there. This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated in the current release, Red Hat is unfortunately unable to address this request at this time. Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. If you would like it considered as an exception in the current release, please ask your support representative. This issue is back after rebase to evolution 2.32. The attachment contains incomplete forwarded msg, only part of headers. When I check the msg on server (using OWA) the msg is complete, therefor Evolution sent the forwared msg ok, but have problem to download it. Reproducer: 1) Select a msg and forward it to yourself 2) Sync the account 3) Check the forwarded msg - the original msg should be attached evolution-mapi-0.32.2-6.el6 openchange-1.0-4.el6 I have a fix for evolution-mapi, to properly tag the message attachment, thus evolution itself shows it properly, though the main problem is in a way how evolution-mapi writes the attached message into the server. Newer version of evolution-mapi does it correctly, which means that it writes message attachments as embedded messages into the MAPI object, while 0.32.2 writes them as ordinary attachments. The difference can be seen in OWA (and Outlook), where embedded message attachments can be viewed in the web UI, while messages as plain attachments has name like ATT30306.eml (605 B) in OWA and evolution, and these cannot be viewed directly in web UI. Backport of a concrete fix in evolution-mapi involves many consecutive changes, which doesn't worth the effort from my point of view, especially when we promote evolution-ews over evolution-mapi since RHEL 6.5. Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.
