I gave a presentation today at the Central New York CFUG about upgrading to ColdFusion 8. I'm afraid I may have scared some people away from updating, but that was not my intent! I simply wanted to prepare them for things they MIGHT run into. Most of the installs I have done have gone smoothly, and the problems are generally easy to figure out with a little research. The benefits of CF8 far outweigh running into a glitch or two during an upgrade.

Several people who are using Gmail's fairly new IMAP feature have reported problems opening attachments through Thunderbird. Word and PDF documents, and possibly others, generate an error saying that they are "unable to open". Apparently this has something to do with Gmail reporting an incorrect size for the attachment. The same attachments open fine when using the Gmail Web interface instead of Thunderbird.
Here is the fix for this...
- Tools > Options... > Advanced > General > Config Options
- Search for "chunk"
- You should see a preference named "mail.server.default.fetch_by_chunks". Toggle it to false.
- Close and restart.
I found this solution buried in Google Groups.
