[Kolab-devel] [issue893] Toltec always using a windows attachment -> doubling the size

[Bernhard Reiter]

New submission from Bernhard Reiter <bernhard at intevation.de>:

Toltec 2.0.5: 
 
Users report that Toltec doubles the size of all email messages 
that are synced up via the .pst. 
RC3 did not have that behaviour. 
 
Joon told me that this is to prevent the loss of information, 
as any plugin could set unkown flags. 
 
Still the doubling the size seems to be a problem for quotated 
users. What could we do about it. 
I remember a discussion about such flags. 
One idea was to only use the attachments when there are flags. 
Maybe this cannot be reliably detected.  
 
Could a configuration option help? Even when some flags are then disregarded? I 
believe this would be preferable in some situations. 
 
The best solution would be to only put this information in 
X-Toltec-flag--xxxxxx: YYYY 
headers and try to decode as many YYYY situations as we can over time 
so that compatibility with other clients could be made possible in the future.
