-FIXES
-
-recent fixes based on importing results into evolution
-
-1. was running into some issue with base64 encoded message/rfc822 attachments displaying
- as empty. encoding them as plain solved the issue (odd).
-
-2. problem with a large percentage of emails, not displaying as mime. turned out to be
- all received from blackberry. further, turned out there was 2 content-type headers,
- "Content-Type", which I add, and "Content-type". normally my override works, but I
- need to handle it case insensitvely it would appear. more tricky, whats the story
- with these. fixing that will probably fix that whole class of issues there.
- evolution was renaming my second content type as X-Invalid-Content-Type or something.
-
-3. another interesting one. had content-transfer-encoding set in the transport message
- headers. it was set to base64. i didn't override that, so evolution "decoded" my
- plaintext message into complete garbage.
- fix - delete content-transfer-encoding.
-
-4. added content-location and content-id output in the mime handling of attachments
- to get some inline html/image mails to work properly.
- further, the containing mime content-type must be multipart/related, not multipart/mixed,
- at least for evolution, in order for the images to appear inline.
- could still improve in this area. if someone drags and drops in an image, it may
- be inline in the rtf version, but exchanges generates crappy html such that the image
- doesn't display inline. maybe i should correct the html output in these cases as i'm
- throwing away the rtf version.
-
-5. note you may need wingdings installed. i had a lot of L and J appear in messages from
- outlook users. turns out its smilies in wingdings. i think its only if word is used
- as email editor and has autotext messing things up.
-
-6. still unsure about how to do my "\r" handling.
-
-7. need to join addresses with , instead of ; i think. evolution only shows the
- first one otherwise it appears, but all when they are , separated.
-
-8. need to solve ole storage issues with the very large file using extra bat
- stuff.
-
-9. retest a bit on evolution and thunderbird, and release. tested on a corups
- of >1000 msg files, so should be starting to get pretty good quality.
-
-10. longer term, things fall into a few basic categories:
-
-- non mail conversions (look further into vcard, ical et al support for other
- types of msg)
-- further tests and robustness for what i handle now. ie, look into corner
- cases covered so far, and work on the mime code. fix random charset encoding
- issues, in the various weird mime ways, do header wrapping etc etc.
- check fidelity of conversions, and capture some more properties as headers,
- such as importance which i don't do yet.
-- fix that named property bug. tidy up warnings, exceptions.
-- extend conversion to make better html.
- this is longer term. as i don't use the rtf, i need to make my html better.
- emulating some rtf things. harder, not important atm.
