Description Matthew Barnes 2010-05-12 02:32:02 UTC
Forwarding from a Fedora bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=591330


Description of problem:
attachments are sometimes inaccessible when using the mapi connector.  For
instance  I have message X in my inbox, and the paperclip (attachment) icon is
next to my message indicating that the message has an attachment.  However,
when I click on the message, there is no indication in the message that there
actually is an attachment.  That is, there is no option to download or view the
attachment.  If I view the same message in OWA, I can see that the message has
a pdf attached.

Other messages I can access the attachment perfectly fine.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
evolution-2.30.1-3.fc13.x86_64
evolution-mapi-0.30.1-1.fc13.x86_64

How reproducible:
sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. click on message that has an attachment
2 [details].
3.

Actual results:
no option is given to download or view the attachment

Expected results:
attachment can be viewed or downloaded.

Additional info:

on the message where the attachment is inaccessible, looking at the message
source seems to indicate that there is no attachment, so this would seem to be
some type of mapi connector failure.  Yet, the attachment flag is being set and
that is getting through as the "paperclip" icon is being displayed in spite of
this.

attaching two files, one is the console output on a message where the
attachments are inaccessible, another is a message where they are accessible.
