Description walt 2006-06-22 20:10:58 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
Articles over 10,000 lines with multiple jpeg attachments don't display.

Charles, I couldn't find my previous bug report on this same topic, so
I'm opening a new one -- sorry.

I just tried reading an article with 3 jpeg attatchments which happened
to be 11,154 lines long -- and of course it would not display because of
the 10,000 line limit you set in your recent patch.

Is there an alternative approach to setting an arbitrary limit on article
size?  Perhaps just popping up a dialog box so the user can confirm that
he is willing to risk downloading the entire article?

Maybe reading the body of the article up to the first attachment and
asking if the user wants to download all X attachments for a total of
Y bytes?

Steps to reproduce:
1. 
2. 
3. 


Actual results:


Expected results:


Does this happen every time?

Before I add popups or preference options, I'd like to try
a little longer to find a solution that "just works".

I've upped the threshold to 20,000 lines, which hopefully
will be enough for most image attachments.

Let me know if you hit the ceiling again. :)
