I can confirm corrupted extracted attachments. But the extracted files are not all the time corrupted. If I export the file directly from my mail client, it is not corrupted. Example for a corrupted file is a .docx-file:

It would be very helpful if you could send me an example for a msg or eml which produces these corrupted attachments.
Please send to: [email protected]

Thank you very much for your message.

Unfortunately I cannot provide the original file (data privacy). But I tested around and found out the following:

Original eml-file:
...
--19046660-30413-1613741647-0
Content-Type: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document; name="=?iso-8859-1?Q?Konzept_neue_=D6ffnungsstrukturen=2Edocx?="
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="=?iso-8859-1?Q?Konzept_neue_=D6ffnungsstrukturen=2Edocx?="
...

Result: docx-file is corrupted, IO-Error.

Manipulated eml-file V1 (cut parts within #CUT# #/CUT#):
--19046660-30413-1613741647-0
Content-Type: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document; #CUT#*name="=?iso-8859-1?Q?Konzept_neue_=D6ffnungsstrukturen=2Edocx?="#/CUT#
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="=?iso-8859-1?Q?Konzept_neue_=D6ffnungsstrukturen=2Edocx?="

Result: docx-file is not corrupted and opens fine!

Manipulated eml-file V2 (replace parts within #CUT# #/CUT# by "filename"):
--19046660-30413-1613741647-0
Content-Type: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document; #CUT#name#/CUT#="=?iso-8859-1?Q?Konzept_neue_=D6ffnungsstrukturen=2Edocx?="
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="=?iso-8859-1?Q?Konzept_neue_=D6ffnungsstrukturen=2Edocx?="

Result: docx-file is not corrupted and opens fine!

Hopefully my hints can nevertheless be helpful.
