[Bug 891147] Re: pdf attachments truncate by about 2k and resulting in pdf reader rejecting it

 

I am having a similar problem, but with all types of attachments. If I
go into web mail and download the attachments they are complete. If I
attempt to download them with Thunderbird, the file size is smaller and
the file is incomplete. I observed this with text files and it was clear
that the last part of the file was simply being truncated. In the most
recent example, the resulting file was 192 bytes short.

This has happened with text files, PDF files and ZIP files so far.

It is clearly a bug.
