Failed to parse TIFF message attachment

Hello

I am using GF v2.1.1 on Win7 with JDK build 1.6.0_20-b02.

My application downloads e-mails from an account and analyzes their
attachments.

When a message has got a TIFF attachment, I get an
IllegalArgumentException: failed to parse:
as soon as I call message.getContent() on it.

I traced the exception inside GF source code and found that it is raised in
DataFlavor constructor:

try {
            initialize(mimeType, humanPresentableName,
this.getClass().getClassLoader());
        } catch (MimeTypeParseException mtpe) {
            throw new IllegalArgumentException("failed to parse:" +
mimeType);
        }

because the mimeType parameter is set to "java.lang.String".

If I run the same code outside GF, linking to JavaMail 1.4.2, it works fine.

What is the cause of that ?

Thanks
