Category: Pipermail Group: 2.1 (stable) Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 9 Submitted By: Daniel Buchmann (avalon) Assigned to: Barry A. Warsaw (bwarsaw) Summary: Major attachment handling bug!

Initial Comment: Attachments are not handled correctly. Attached to this bug report is an example email in a mbox file. How to reproduce:

1. create a list called "clasohlson"
2. copy this mbox file to the archive mbox file
3. run bin/arch for the list
4. look at the resulting archive

I will post a followup which will contain the resulting html file I got when doing this.

Sorry, forget my last comment, the attachment was just fine. My mistake. But attachment naming is still a problem.

Check also the attached "attachment_error.mbox". It contains a single message, with a MS Word document that becomes completely scrambled after going through pipermail...

Applied without problems, but gave me the following error when running bin/arch (not on the mbox I submitted, though):

Traceback (most recent call last): File "bin/arch", line 187, in ? main() File "bin/arch", line 175, in main archiver.processUnixMailbox(fp, start, end) File "/home/mailman/Mailman/Archiver/pipermail.py", line 544, in processUnixMailbox m = mbox.next() File "/usr/lib/python2.2/mailbox.py", line 33, in next return self.factory(_Subfile(self.fp, start, stop)) File "/home/mailman/Mailman/Mailbox.py", line 79, in scrubber return mailbox.scrub(msg) File "/home/mailman/Mailman/Mailbox.py", line 99, in scrub return self._scrubber(self._mlist, msg) File "/home/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/Scrubber.py", line 145, in process cs = csre.search(part['content-type']) TypeError: expected string or buffer

The offending message had no "Content-Type:" field in its header. (It was, of course, produced by a Microsoft product... ;)

Some issues from my earlier subimtted example that still needs to be fixed: that posted the message.

1. The attachment file name still becomes ".dot", not ".doc" as it should have been. Also, the reported size is wrong (larger) than the actual file.
2. "The attachment was scrubbed" part in the archive web page is still sort of "attached" to the message itself, e.g. to the email signature of the user

And here is the html file in english. Notice the difference. Lots of garbage (also called mojibake?) ;)

Here is the generated html page for the email, if list language is set to norwegian.
