Hi again, I noticed that Darren Salt sent a patch for this bug (thanks a lot, Darren!). I tested the patch (by applying it to sylpheed/3.0.0~beta4-1): it does compile, but it does *not* fix the bug. Actually, running sylpheed inside a debugger showed me that function qp_encode_line is called on the entire message body, not on single message body lines: hence the comparison with "From " should be made inside the while loop at the beginning of each new line. I'll see if I find the time to prepare a patch that attempts to really fix the bug. In the meanwhile, Ricardo, did you succeed in forwarding the bug upstream? Has the upstream author already prepared a fix? Please let me know: if upstream has already prepared a fix, I would like to avoid wasting my time in redoing what has already been done elsewhere...
