WebGUI PDF email attachment wrong filename / file extension

I have sent some emails to my customers. These mails are archived in Piler. The got a short text, my signature in HTML and an attachment.

All these mails I have sent a few hours ago have the attachment link like “RE_2148.202008.pdfContent-Type: application/pdf” – also the downloaded file have the exact same filename – and i not readable with the file extension “pdfContent-Type: application/pdf”. When I remove “Content-Type: application/pdf” it is the regular PDF file.

As I see now all emails in the archive with PDF attachment have this problem.

Word or PNG files attached are displayed / linked / downloaded correctly.

The wrong filename is stored in the attachment table in database.

Problem 2:

I don’t know if this has something to with this problem (before I open a new ticket): These mails have no text (which I wrote with the attachment). Some of these mails a replied on emails which had conversations. The older conversations are displayed, but the text I wrote with the mail is also missing.

When I download the .eml file and open it I can see the whole email – attachment (correct) and the text I wrote that is missing in piler.

This problem is solved with pull request #20

I think it is because Apple Mail allows everywhere in the email to drop the attachment. And after the attachment starts a “new” part that get eached – so the text before that attachment is missing because only the last part get displayed.
