Description

@martgil

Description:
The user reported a scenario wherein the appears to be encrypted message in the attachment is not appearing correctly within the browser extension. It doesn't even throw a generic decrypt error showing us an unusual case that maybe we didn't handle just yet.

The message contains 3 attachment (noname, encrypted.asc, public_key.asc) and rendered as:
image

Here is a short description of what I know about each attachment.

noname - it contains the detached signature
encrypted.asc - encrypted message
public_key.asc - public key of the sender

In comparison, this particular encrypted message can be decrypted on our android app very well.

The message originally came from msgsafe.io (another email service that supports PGP encryption).

Steps to reproduce:

  1. I have saved the test message within our flowcrypt compatibility test account, just open the Test Email 2 with the label decrypt error and it should greet you with a similar problem.
