[pmmail-list] PMMAIL 2.20.2380 file corruption (forwards with attachments)

[Ulrich Jakobus]

It seems that I must clarify the bug, to avoid these speculations:

>Maybe I am wrong, but as I interpret the 'bug report' the problem is a
>file with the same name that is in DIFFERENT DIRECTORIES. 

No, the bug has nothing to do with files in directories. The bug
is that if I have 2 e-mails with attached files of the same name
(but possibly of different content), then when I forward these two
e-mails sequentially (of course not simultaneously), the attached 
file of the second e-mail gets replaced by the file which is attached
to=B4the first e-mail.

So just to make clear: I have two different *.msg files lying in
the same or different directories of my PMMAIL folder. Both *.msg
files are MIME encoded and include attachments with the same name.
But the *.msg files are of course different, different e-mail text,
different content of the attachment, only the line
   Content-Disposition: inline; filename=3D"LICENCE.DAT"
or similar with the filename is identical. That's all. I don't 
have the attached files anywhere on my hard disk.

Then forward mail 1 (first *.msg file) to someone. Wait until send
is finished. Even 1 day later, select e-mail 2. Forward this to
someone (yourself for instance). You will realise that the attachment
of mail 2 is now suddenly wrong.

Yes, this is checked. But as I understand, this has nothing to do
with this particular bug. The setting applies when opening attachments
(e.g. if I receive a *.doc file and doubleclick at it to start Word).
