AchtionMailer Multipart w/ Attachment issues

Reported by aegas | July 2nd, 2009 @ 06:45 PM | in 3.x

Hi,

sendings emails as the railsguide shows here:
http://guides.rubyonrails.org/action_mailer_basics.html#sending-mul...

results in getting emails contending ONLY the Attachment, the raw mail still contents all parts.

Im not the only person having that troubles, i asked in several forums, all i got was confusion.

i created the same thing in php via phpmailer, and noticed differences between the rails and php generated headers.

and i see differences..

phpmail:
--b1_aa902415515527cc9b89965adf0d486b
Content-Type: multipart/alternative;

boundary="b2_aa902415515527cc9b89965adf0d486b"



--b2_aa902415515527cc9b89965adf0d486b Content-Type: text/plain; charset = "utf-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
..the text..
--b2_aa902415515527cc9b89965adf0d486b Content-Type: text/html; charset = "utf-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
..html..
--b2_aa902415515527cc9b89965adf0d486b-- --b1_aa902415515527cc9b89965adf0d486b Content-Type: application/pdf; name="test.pdf" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="test.pdf"
..base64isch code here.. --b1_aa902415515527cc9b89965adf0d486b--
Rails headers: --mimepart_4a4cefd3abb15_7ebd3f8723f58f041213 Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: Quoted-printable Content-Disposition: inline
html..
--mimepart_4a4cefd3abb15_7ebd3f8723f58f041213 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: Quoted-printable Content-Disposition: inline
..the text..it displays me the htmlcode again here...
--mimepart_4a4cefd3abb15_7ebd3f8723f58f041213 Content-Type: application/pdf Content-Transfer-Encoding: Base64 Content-Disposition: attachment
the ttachment, unnamed.. --mimepart_4a4cefd3abb15_7ebd3f8723f58f041213--

so we see 2 mimeparts boundarys in php, in rails its diferent, right? (just guessing)

besindes to that, the plainpart is gone here.

my code to send the railsmail: http://www.abelkilledcain.de/sending-multipartalternative-emails-wi...
