Problem Description:When Update 11 for Coldfusion 11 was installed we started to have difficulty with email attachments that had longer filenames.
We use some names that are very long. Over 60 characters.
Update 11 and higher truncates the filenames. Our ZIXSecure system fails to deliver these attachments, and attachments that go to other secure mail systems includeing Gmail are truncated and lose their mime type because of the loss of file extension.
I am attaching examples of the mail headers that shows a difference between the two patches.
The Update 11, 12 and 13 header looks something like the following: Notice the filenames being broken into two lines.
------=_Part_0_1206769868.1505335781496
Content-Type: application/octet-stream;
name*0="CommissionStatement_20170630_Z_370_LAURIE UPCHURCH AND
ASSOC"; name*1="IATES LLC_203749.pdf"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename*0=CommissionStatement_20170630_Z_370_LAURI;
filename*1*=E%20UPCHURCH%20AND%20ASSOCIATES%20LLC_203749.pdf
For Update 10 and earlier the header looked as it does below:
------=_Part_4_1767487212.1505931288847
Content-Type: application/octet-stream;
name="CommissionStatement_20170630_Z_370_LAURIE UPCHURCH AND
ASSOCIATES LLC_203749.pdf"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename*0=CommissionStatement_20170630_Z_370_LAURI;
filename*1*=E%20UPCHURCH%20AND%20ASSOCIATES%20LLC_203749.pdf
You can see the difference in the name parameter, all being handled as one varaible in Update 10, split into name*0 and name*1 in Update 11 and higher.
Steps to Reproduce: Send and email with a attachment that has a long name to Zixsecure or other secure server, and the attachment becomes unusable for Update 11,12 or 13.
Actual Result: Attachment loses part of name and extension and if no mimetype specified can not be opened.
Expected Result: Should deliver with the attachment as it would through exchange or other mail systems.
