gmail multipart messages not showing
« on: June 14, 2013, 05:18:00 am »
I failed to receive three emails last night that were sent to me from people using gmail accounts.
The headers arrived, but the text on each was shown blank, and as 0.00B long.
I was able to receive a forth message that I sent as a plain text message.

The headers from the one of the non-plain-text messages that I was not able to view showed it as having:

Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary=047d7b6226d0067f1304df065754

The other two non-plain-text messages also showed as multipart/alternative, but different "boundary" codes.  (Both codes starting with 047d7b, as it happens.)

I'm using IMAP to connect to my email server.

I'm able to use Thunderbird to connect to my email server with IMAP and successfully read all three emails.

I'm successfully received some different multipart/alternative emails recently using AquaMail; these emails were sent from non-gmail accounts.

Please have patience with your problem as Kostya is still ill.
Thank you.

Perhaps you can send him a log file, so than he can reproduce the failure.

I guess these are messages from Apple Mail?

It likes to have multiple parts with the same "meaning", e.g. multiple text/plain or text/html, whereas other mail apps use one of each at most.

This is something I'm looking to fix in the next "large" update (as well as being able to handle winmail.dat).

It would help me if you could 1) enable debug logging, without "raw data": http://www.aqua-mail.com/?page_id=232 2) open the message, and do Menu / Diag: refresh (last item) 3) send me the log file.

These messages are from Google mail.

I should be able to look into it further eventually, but I'm travelling for the next few weeks.

Am I the only one having problems reading email sent from gmail?
