Description Marvin 2014-12-09 23:42:41 UTC
When I re-send a file there are two problems.

1. The attachment becomes inline
2. The attachment is also attached (and the size is the unencoded size, see bug # 3350)

The file is now almost twice the size of the original

(Looking in the sent folder)

original size on disk = 256116
new size on disk      = 508567


Inlining the attachment is problem #1
Doubling the size of the original is problem #2

Attach an example message to this bug item.
Comment 2 Paul 2014-12-10 11:00:20 UTC
When you say 're-send' do you mean Redirect or Forward?
When you say 'file' do you mean 'message'?
"(Looking in the sent folder)" - you mean that you're resending one of your own messages?
What differences show if you diff the files?
Comment 3 Marvin 2014-12-12 19:55:03 UTC
Steps to repro:

1. dbl-click previously sent message containing an attachment only.
2. Note that the attachment now appears in the body of the new message
3. Note that the attachment is also an attachment.
