Error occurs while loading an EML data either from a stream or a file as shown below:

                    mailMessage = new MailMessage();
                    mailMessage.Load(originalDataStream);

The same EML file can be opened by Outlook.

I appreciate any help/resolution. How can I upload the EML file that is causing this problem?

Sincerely,

Instead of uploading the EML file that is causing the problem you can send it to support@rebex.net. Please ZIP the eml file first in order to make sure that it's not modified during transfer.

Thank you for sending the eml to us. We have discovered that the exception is a bug caused by incorect implementation of padding in TNEF multi-value fields. A hotfix is available on demand.

Update: This was fixed in Rebex Secure Mail 2012 R3.
