Bug Fixes

SMIME .der Certificates from LDAP cause “wide character” messages with ‘SMIME::FetchFromCustomer’ feature.
Customer users are not able to select queue in the External Interface (only in Firefox), due to the JavaScript error.
PGP encrypted emails corrupted by MS-Exchange can not be correctly decrypted in the BODV. Added new postmaster modifier module to detect and fix this corrupted emails, it can be activated with the system configuration setting PostMaster::ModifierModule###1-PGPMixedUpEncryption, fixing this emails require altering the email structure and content type, this operation is irreversible.
Process management fields shows ‘HASH(0x…)’ values in statistics results.
Process stuck while performing Maint::Stats::Reports::GenerateCron. OTRS uses Chromium binary for the PDF generation, which might get stuck occasionally.
Missing attachments from opaque signed S/MIME emails.
Inline images are not shown in the External Interface. Behavior in both External and Agent Interface is identical now. Added a new SysConfig setting ShowWarningLoadingRemoteContent.
Attachments are shown only one per row, hence occupy too much space in the GUI.
