Comment 1 Eric 2003-04-23 13:18:19 UTC

I have the same problem. Impossible to open mail attachment, i must save each time instead to open it directly from "right click--->open".

My system is intel P4.

Comment 2 Andres Toomsalu 2003-04-30 07:01:49 UTC

I have exactly same problem. Upgraded mozilla from 1.0.1 to 1.3 stable. I'll try to remove old 1.0.1 profile and create fresh with 1.3 and we'll see if that problem still exists.

Comment 3 Andres Toomsalu 2003-04-30 07:15:22 UTC

Created fresh profile with 1.3 and problem still accours... Intresting that mozilla web browser knows about right mimetypes and helper applications..mhm.

Comment 4 Thomas R. (TRauMa) 2003-07-07 03:57:52 UTC

I assume you all use imap servers? This is a known mozilla 1.3 problem. Can be closed here as it is fixed in 1.4.

Comment 5 Frédéric COIFFIER 2003-07-07 04:18:08 UTC

No, I use a POP server but there isn't this bug in the 1.4.
I think this Bug can be closed.

Mozilla 1.4 is now in portage, just without enigmail as the mozdev.org servers are under attack.
