Empty attachment folders are been created #72

Closed jmeile closed 5 years ago

Hi

I have test the script with three groups and the result is the same. Under the folder "email", lots of empty /attachments folders are been created. I have inspect some of the messages and indeed they don't have any attachment. So, why are these folder been created?

Best regards Josef

Ok, I think that this may be related to inline attachments that may be not available anymore. Here an extract of one of those messages:

Attachment content not displayed ]
------=_NextPart_000_00F8_01C5D337.CB99E650
Content-Type: image/jpeg;
name="Nature Bkgrd.jpg"
Content-ID: <00f701c5d359$529f5150$0500a8c0@laptop>

[ Attachment content not displayed]
------=_NextPart_000_00B2_01C596B8.6C985A80--

So, it seems to be Yahoo's fault
