Comments
Christey> This problem appears in AMaViS as well, so they may be the | same codebase. If so, then CD:SF-CODEBASE says to merge the | two (thus ADDREF BID:1461). If they are not the same | codebase, then create a separate candidate for BID:1461. | Frech> XF:linux-tnef-email-overwrite(4915) | CHANGE> [Magdych changed vote from REVIEWING to NOOP]
