I'm using 5.2 via ColdFusion MX 7.
I'm retrieving messages and, sometimes, find that the subject given by Mailbee
is missing line breaks that the sending server has placed in the subject. I have
downloaded the message first in Thunderbird and get the following in the header:
Subject: test 2 test 2 test 2 test 2 test 2 test 2 test 2 test 2 test 2 test 2
test 2
test 2 test 2 test 2 te
But, when I use Mailbee to read this subject, the line break (CRLF) is missing
AND there is no single space in it's place. Mailbee gives me this:
test 2 test 2 test 2 test 2 test 2 test 2 test 2 test 2 test 2 test 2 test 2test
2 test 2 test 2 te
The subject the customer is sending is like this:
test 2 test 2 test 2 test 2 test 2 test 2 test 2 test 2 test 2 test 2 test 2
test 2 test 2 test 2 te
They have told me that the sending server will break long subjects up into multi
line. My application depends on the ability to match the received subject
exactly to what the customer reported. When Mailbee removes the CRLF, that is
fine but the missing space is a problem.
Is this possibly resolved in 5.8 and does my 5.2 license entitle me to 5.8?

You can get the latest version from http://www.afterlogic.com/updates/mailbee.zip
Yes, your license does entitle you to use 5.8 with your existing key.
The update may help although you should not there is no strict rule of joining lines in headers. In some cases, space should be removed or should be preserved. So it's not completely reliable to rely on certain behavior. It could be good idea to have the subject line stripped from whitespaces at all and saved in the database in such form. For instance, MIME often makes no difference between tab and space and can get a situation when the code stucks expecting space when tab was actually delivered.

Alex

Thanks! I'll try 5.8 and see if this changes.
I still think this is a bug. Subjects come into Thunderbird with this:
prefixCRLFspaceSuffix
But Mailbee gives it back as:
prefixSuffix
Basically, I'm fine with the CRLF being removed but other space being removed is
erroneously greedy of Mailbee.
