problem with AttachmentFileNameIs in James 2.2.0a15
Hi there, I'm using James 2.2.0a15 and have just added the
AttachmentFileNameIs matcher to the configuration (I added the test that
Noel recently sent to the list)
however when testing this, I kept getting my test exe file through the
matcher...
hmm from what I saw, the matcher did not work..
so I started to trace down the problem by setting all the logsto debug
and trying to find ut why the exe file got through.
after searching, banning I finally found the problem (and felt so stupid)
the matcher DOES work,but not just under certain envioments...
It CAN let files through even though it really should have matched...
the problem is not with normal files, but with files that use some sort
of national characters (for me that are the norwegian characters åæøÅÆØ)
I used 2 different ways of sending the message, first I used mozilla
(from linux) to send a file called øyenblikksfoto1.exe (it was a png
that i had renamed) here is what came through as name in the mime
encapsulation.
Content-Type: application/octet-stream;
name="=?ISO-8859-1?Q?=F8yeblikksfoto1=2Eexe?="
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename="=?ISO-8859-1?Q?=F8yeblikksfoto1=2Eexe?="
and since the matcher matches for *.exe this file gets through, since
there is NO *.exe in that filename (mozzilla parsed this filename
correctly)
I then had a friend send me an "exe" file through hotmail (I don't have
that myself) the file was called "nånting.exe" and here is what came to
me in the mime-encapsulating...
Content-Type: application/octet-stream;
name="=?iso-8859-1?B?buVudGluZy5leGU= ?="
Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename="=?iso-8859-1?B?buVudGluZy5leGU= ?="
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
This file also got through to me, but this time not even mozilla could
parse that filename...
well i just wanted to let you know :-) perheps this is already fixed an
later versions of james... I tried to use jira to find it, but I did
not find anything related to this when searching for "attachment"

Christian,
Can you create a bug report in JIRA?
(http://issues.apache.org/jira) I'm not sure if this
should be something we push to JavaMail's developers, but
this is something we might just have to add to the matcher
itself (and possibly other matchers doing header
detection).
