Description Darius Mažeika 2005-05-12 09:33:27 UTC
Please describe the problem:
If the mail is not plain text, it always is converted with mime-multipart
headers and HTML showing as text

Steps to reproduce:
1. Select an email written in HTML or with an attachement
2. Press right mouse button and select "Convert to task"
3. Switch to task viewer and select the last task created
4. View the description of the task


Actual results:
In the description mime-multipart separators & HTML text is present:

DESCRIPTION:This is a multipart message in MIME format.\n--=_alternative 
 003166C7C2256FFF_=\nContent-Type: text/plain\; 
 charset=\"Windows-1257\"\nContent-Transfer-Encoding: 
 quoted-printable\n\nSveiki Kolegos\,=20\n\nU=FE kiekvienus 5vnt. Leadtek 

Last of the garbage ommitted

Expected results:
Plain clean text or HTML representation of the email message

Does this happen every time?
Always
