STR: Attach a BMO message which has CTE quoted-printable to a message and send. Result 1: message/rfc822 attachment looks good in the preview pane. Compose a new message and drag the message/rfc822 attachment to the attachment bucket. Send message. Result 2: message/rfc822 attachment looks garbled. Analysis: The message/rfc822 attachment maintains these headers: Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable However, the content is not encoded quoted-printable as originally, but instead 7bit (at least for ASCII messages from BMO). So any = sign in the message body will lead to a decoding error since an attempt to decode the message from quoted-printable is made. === Sadly when reporting this bug I noticed another bug: Double-clicking onto the attachment which has been dragged from a previous message crashes: https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/bp-e49fbf9b-7fc3-4024-8fa7-243512170301 https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/bp-aa5a6b84-2661-47b8-8365-efd0c2170301 That's apparently covered in bug 1316416.
