[issue228] KMail composer: disabling signing for an attachment leads to no body sent

[David Faure]

New submission from David Faure <faure at kde.org>:

In KMail, compose a new mail, and 
* choose OpenPGP/MIME  
* activate signing in the toolbar 
* write some text in the body 
* add an attachment 
* disable signing for that attachment 
* send the mail (to yourself) 
 
The resulting mail has no body at all, only the attachment. 
 
The difference with the normal case is: 
mEarlyAddAttachments=false and mAllAttachmentsAreInBody=false 
(they are true when signing the attachment) 
 
Hmm, not sure if related, but the code basically does 
  if ( mEarlyAddAttachments ) { 
     ... 
  } else { // !earlyAddAttachments 
    // the signed body must not be 8bit encoded 
    mOldBodyPart.setBodyAndGuessCte(body, allowedCTEs, ..., doSign); 
  } 
  // create S/MIME body part for signing and/or encrypting 
  mOldBodyPart.setBodyEncoded( body ); 
 
Doesn't the last line invalidate the contents of the "else"? 
 
Anyway the problem is later, since mEncodedBody is OK. 
 
Further investigation shows that 
the && ( !mEarlyAddAttachments || !mAllAttachmentsAreInBody ) 
in MessageComposer::addBodyAndAttachments() is the first problem (those are 
false, but there *is* an attachment in this mail, so we need to go in the first 
part of this if() AFAICS). But even commenting that out doesn't help, still no 
body in the resulting mail. The Dw* stuff totally escapes me so I'm stopping 
there...
