Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/modoboa/modoboa/issues/1329

Impacted versions

  • Modoboa: 1.9.1
  • installer used: Yes
  • Webserver: Nginx/Apache

Steps to reproduce

Foward a .msg file with a PDF attach as attach to web mail. (see screenshots)

Current behavior

Some programs like SAP sends attachments like a PDF file in a attachment .msg (file type: Outlook-item). These files are automatically renamed in the web mail tot ‘part_2’. These are therefore now not readable. If you read the mail in other clients like Outlook or Apple mail these files are okay. It’s gives only a problem in the web mail.

Expected behavior

Readable PDF files in the web mail.

I guess we could use something like this to read this format but I don't have access to such messages so it would be difficult to enhance the webmail.
