------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2006-12-10 23:23 ------- See the comments in bug 5188 which has been closed as a duplicate of this one. The problem is that there are a number of character sets that have the Roman alphabet as the 0x20 to 0x7e ASCII characters and some other language in the high-bit characters. Anyone with a Hebrew Windows machine, for example, is likely to send all mail, including English, in the Windows-1255 charset. That's why every charset that begins with "WINDOWS" is whitelisted. As I said in bug 5188 comment 6: "I'm leaning towards having the charset-faraway test for bodies not give a free pass to the non-Latin Windows, ISO, and CP125 charsets, since there is already a test for the majority of characters in the body being high-bit which will allow through Roman alphabet emails in those charsets. Doing that would require a change to keep the free pass for the charset-faraway-header test." In other words, keep the current test to be used for charset-farawy-header, and use a different sub for the test used for charset-faraway for the body that does not whitelist non-Latin WINDOWS, ISO, and CP125 charsets. The existing code will still let the charset be accepted as Roman as long as the body has a majority of 7-bit characters. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.
