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.
Unless I'm missing something the OP is on 4.0.12 and Michael stated
this was fixed in 4.0.15. Perhaps a Horde/IMP upgraded is necessary
before continuing?

Hi simon,
He said: "...but it was fixed for 5.0.15", which refers to Imp, which is
most current. I'm current on all horde apps as of today. I don't think
this bug is the same thing I'm viewing anyway, since it seems to apply only
to Linux FF/Acroread.
I have tried every setting regarding pdfs on firefox that I can think of,
tried switching to okular, tried setting it to open PDF files with the
acroread program (not the plugin), I even set it to "Save File"... nothing
works. I get that blank screen every time.
There is something very different about that link. Every other pdf on
the web works (an any of the configs I mentioned), but not this horde link.
There is something different going on with it, I cannot even right click
it and choose "save link location" like a normal link.
Sorry. Saw that too late.
Have you tried cute-pdf plugin?
Simon

No worries simon. Are you sure that is a linux app? I don't see it
in portage, and I didn't see any indication of linux on the web
page... and, it looks like they want $... I'm not willing to pay for a
pdf reader...
