HTML-only Mail

Open defuse opened this issue 11 years ago • 2 comments

I'm not totally sure if this is a problem in gpg-mailgate or in Thunderbird. When an HTML-only mail is recieved, it gets encrypted, and Thunderbird no longer displays it correctly.

  • Viewing the message body as 'Plain Text' shows nothing, just a blank window.
  • Viewing the message body as 'Original HTML' displays the message's HTML source code.
  • Viewing the message body as 'Simple HTML' shows the ascii-armored ciphertext.

Can you send yourself a dummy message, and provide the source here (with headers, attachments and all the stuff)? I tested Thunderbird and everything looks fine for me...

Postbox on the Mac behaves the same way. My guess is the content type is handled in the preview pane before decryption. The HTML source of the message is shown rather than being rendered.
