ebay emails are not read I think it may be due to the encoding of the source.

Hello,

It appears that ebay emails are not presented properly in the roundcube webmail with the latest fixes(Ver 281 2006-07-24). I have the latest version as of the 7.26.06 and it still does not want to open any emails from ebay.

I think the problem is that of the source code I think that it may not like ISO-8859-1

Here is the source of the email when I view it from http://www.mail2web.com .. All important information is left out of this email but the source is still in tact.

Any suggestions would be wonderful.

Hmm I wonder if this is a type of XSS (http://www.cgisecurity.com/articles/xss-faq.shtml ) defense? Could it be that this is a cross site scripting prevention or something that is not allowed on the Roundcube webmail side? If I even signup with ebay and have a confirmation email sent to me it seems to just be stuck on the loading of the webpage.. eventually it will dispaly a blank page. This is the exact same situation that occurs on Firefox as well as IE6 with all of the SPs.

If any oen has an idea or a clue as to how to work around this I would be very happy to entertain any ideas as what to do.

I am an ISP admin of a small ISP and we have only a mere 900 plus email boxes with a great use of webmail. We are perfect for discovering issues because so many of our clients use webmail with good feedback.

We have tried to display the emails as text only and it seems to still hang. But when any other webmail is used like mail2web it works.

Any ideas?

-Sincerely,
DesertAdmin

That message doesn't look like proper MIME:

Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary=1d69903.1153943678851.JavaMail.ebayapp.sr-wpay002
X-eBay-MailTracker: 10025.471.0.0

--1828469903.1153943678851.JavaMail.ebayapp.sr-wpay002
Content-Type: text/plain;charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

Notice that the boundary identifier in the header doesn't match the one in the body.

oops sorry whn I copied it I accidentally changed that part by accident. I was trying to remove certain parts of the email contents to keep it private but I rember accidentally fat fingering that line.

But yeah the proper number is the one with out the d in it.
