12.5 Backup Reports - attachments broken in Gmail
Hi
The PDF / Excel backup reports in 12.5 are a massive improvement ... but I have a problem. We use Gmail as our corporate email client, and the attachments from Acronis show as a file "noname" with no extension. This means you can't open it directly from Gmail, the only way to view the report is to download the attachment, rename it with .pdf extension and open.
Looking at the html email source it seems Acronis is using filename* format for the Content-Disposition header, as far as I can make out from RFC the syntax is correct, but I guess Gmail doesn't parse this correctly.
Is there any way I can manually modify email template or something to work around this?
Content-Type: application/octet-stream MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 Content-Disposition: attachment; filename*="utf-8''MyReport.2020-02-20-14-37.pdf"

Hello Justin,
we tried to reproduce the issue in our lab (using Gmail), but didn't get the same results as you - all attachments were correctly displayed. Could you please share more detailed information on the type of reports you are using?
