Description crusaderky 2004-10-24 01:55:48 UTC
I've got mozilla-firefox-1.0_pre-r2 and mozilla-thunderbird 0.8. If I click the link of the attached HTML inside firefox, it appears corrupted in thunderbird.
I've tested it with Konqueror+KMail and it works.

It isn't the length, it's the %F9 8-bit ASCII character.

Please take this upstream, not something we'll fix at the distribution level.
