This message shows up as blank/empty page. I can see all the headers, i can see the full source by selecting show source... but not the message!

This is very annoyng because... this happens with emails from my girlfriend!

**almar** · 09-25-2009 11:54 AM

Hello Willy,

Can you put on the preview pane in "Mailbox view" check if the mail shows up there?

I'm sensing the same problem as I posted earlier. The message looks fine.

Almar

**Willy Gardiol** · 09-25-2009 12:05 PM

Whether i double-click on the message to open it or i enable the preview panel and simply click on the email, the result does not change.

either the preview panel or the new window/page show the headers, date, subject, to, from... but the body below is simply... empty.

Ok, i did some more research.
The following email _WORKS_:

What i did was to REPLY to this email... then my girlfriend answered and BANG, the answer is blank in roundcube...

Something must have changed between my reply and her reply.

**robert.penz** · 09-26-2009 07:41 PM

I've the same problems with some mails.

I believe also that I know the problem. The problem occurs if in the email header empty lines occure. This is still a valid mail if the next line does start with an space.

For example, if the header has something like this:

Code:

 <BAY134-W117C8AD81106C3D8A14DE9ED010@phx.gbl>
MIME-Version: 1.0

The body is shown empty, but if I remove the blank lines via ssh in the maildir on the server so it looks like this:

Code:

References: <tPR5uYcaz0008cb6f@bay0-omc3-s17.bay0.hotmail.com>

everything is shown correctly

**anders** · 09-27-2009 08:34 AM

I got the same problem... Is there any solution for this yet?

**robert.penz** · 09-27-2009 08:38 AM

I don't know of any fix.

I guess it is technically a valid email, but since everything after the empty line is part of the body, it's not a valid MIME email - the mime-version header is missing.

That said, these messages work fine in roundcube 0.2, and in most email programs. We've had three users who complained about this. Someone should open a ticket.

Sorry, it seems these messages don't work in roundcube 0.2, though they work in thunderbird. Still, we've started seeing these messages after upgrading to roundcube 0.3. Apparently something has changed in roundcube's outgoing email, that causes hotmail to reply with corrupt MIME messages.
