I'm using Imp 5.0.15 with Horde 4.0.12.

I am a linux guy, so I do 99% of my work on linux boxes. As part of my work, I send a lot of invoices out to customers in pdf format.

I am using Mozilla firefox 7.0.1, and Adobe Reader 9.4.2 with the firefox plugin on a gentoo box current as of yesterday. It works fine normally, but for some reason, when attaching a PDF to an email and clicking on the link (name of the attachment) to verify the document, it always opens up a blank, white window. There is a very long, ugly URL in the address bar of that window (probably going to a hashed temp file), but nothing renders.

Clicking the attachment name link does not even offer me to download or open in another program, it just opens that blank window.

This is going to slow my workflow down something fierce. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

I can verify that this works fine for me. There was a bug related to this, but it was fixed for 5.0.15.

   Fix intermittent attachment loss when composing messages.

   Fixed by implementing Serializable for IMP_Compose.

   In the server access when attaching a file, the Horde_Mime_Part contains
   the data of the attachment, stored in a stream.  When saving the
   IMP_Compose object to the session, this part was being serialized with
   the entire contents of the data into the part.  Not good for session
   sizes, and this data was periodically being lost.  We already have the
   attachment data stored (either in VFS or filesystem), so we don't need
   this data to be stored in the MIME Part - scrub it before serializing.

   For the record, the way to reproduce:

   1. Use dynamic view
   2. Open compose screen
   3. Attach a file
   4. Insert at least one character in body (to trigger auto-save draft)
   5. Wait for an auto-save draft
   6. Try to view contents of attachment - error will be thrown.

It looks like firefox 8 just hit portage today, so I installed that, and re-tested. It is still doing the same thing. I logged into a windows box with FF8, and it works as expected. So it seems to be related just to linux FF. Are you using a Linux Desktop with FF8, Michael?

I don't think that this is necessarily a horde bug (it probably has more to do with the linux port of FF), but if there is anything I can do to get this working it would be of great help.

Right now I am using FF9 on Win7.

But the PDF plugin is known to be wonky at times on all platforms, at least for me. I can load a PDF and nothing will happen - then I hit refresh and it will instantly load. That's sort of what your issue feels like.
