sorry, if it's already known issue, but it seems that you can create
MIME-message which kills Internet Mail 4.70.1155 (it comes with Internet
Explorer 3.01) during downloading (POP3); I don't sure about other versions
(Outlook works OK with it - at least in IMAP mode).
Just create MIME message with some attachment, then add additional ";" in
"Content-Type" string, like this:
Content-Type: multipart/mixed;; boundary="---- =_NextPart_000_01BD2747.130E56B0"
Or just remove anything after "multipart/mixed" like this:
Content-Type: multipart/mixed
Then send it to your test victim. Internet Mail will crash during
downloading such message, and user will be unable to access his mailbox
until someone corrects it. I was able to reproduce this situation on a
several machines.
Just thought you'd like to know.
