A year ago i recognized an annoying problem with a wrong mime-type of word documents attached to an email. It was attached as plain/text and cut of after a few 10 bytes. (on ~amd64 and ~x86 over more than a year) I introduced that problem in sylpheed mailing-lists - no reaction, which means: not reproducable. Next time, playing around with anjuta, I downloaded the 3.1.0-rc1 from upstream, build it via anjuta and... ...no more problem attaching an word doc. then, 3.1.0 stable appears in portage tree. I tried it, and the problem occurs again. My conclusion: gentoo specific. I copied the ebuild to the local tree, removed all patches and build it. Testing: Attaching a word document and sending it, works fine with right mime-type. It seems to me that noone checked if thoose patches are needed anymore, and I suggest to remove them, because one of them breaks mime-handling of docs. If noone has a serious reason to keep them ;) ervin
Thank you for waiting! Fixed in CVS (sylpheed-3.1.1).
