Package: icedove
Version: 3.0.10-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

It is not possible to attach a file which contains a semicolon in its name.
Icedove erroneously claims that the file does not exist, truncating the name
at the semicolon.  For instance, "foo;bar.txt" would result in an error
message claiming that the file "foo" does not exist.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a new e-mail
2. Attach any file with a semicolon in its name
3. Attempt to send the e-mail

Expected behavior: E-mail is sent appropriately.

Observed behavior: Erroneous message claiming the absence of the file.

Workaround: Create a copy or hard link of the file whose name does not contain
a semicolon and attach that.
