> Key: JAMES-351
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-351
> Project: James Server
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: James Core
> Affects Versions: 2.3.0
> Environment: debian sarge
> Reporter: Ralf Hauser
> Assignee: Norman Maurer
> Priority: Major
>
> org.apache.james.util.mail.handlers.message_disposition_notification.writeTo() blocks anything but Strings.
> As per http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2298.html 3 (d), it is ok also: "If the original message or a portion of the message is to be
> returned to the sender, it appears as the third component of the multipart/report", therefore the if statement should be replaced by
> if (!((aPart instanceof String) || (aPart instanceof MimeMessage))) {
> //as per http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2298.html 3 (d)
> throw new IOException("Type \"" + aPart.getClass().getName()
> + "\" is not supported.");
> }
> if ((aPart instanceof MimeMessage)) {
> try {
> ((MimeMessage) aPart).writeTo(aStream);
> return;
> } catch (Exception e) {
> //log.error(e.getMessage());
> e.printStackTrace();
> throw new IOException(e.getMessage());
> }
> }
> multipart/reports of this form are handled well by Thunderbird, their attachments are ignored by MS-Outlook 2003.
> Sure, normally such a disposition notification is generated by the UA that james is not to date. But if a UA were to reuse james classes (e.g. a web-app on the server), this might be useful?
> If that RFC is relevant, how about also adding it to http://james.apache.org/rfclist.html?
