Hi Jeffrey,
I am working on an application (for internal use) which will archive emails
available in eml format. As I need some additional header fields I looked
around and found the gmime library.
The first problem was, that I am on Windows and it takes hours to compile all
the libraries on which gmime depends. But now everything seems ok, except one
thing.
I am able to parse most of our eml files with gmime library but some of them
are malformed. The name in the email addresses in "To" and "From" fields
contains german umlauts sometimes, which are not encoded.
After debugging it seems that "charset_convert" in gmime-utils.c could not
convert the charset.
In line 1516 there is a call to iconv - which consumes all characters in the
input buffer until the german umlaut character. Nothing happen with this
character and then the while loop around these function running into an
infinite loop.
I am not sure whether this is a gmime issue, an iconv issue or an issue in my
evironment because of Windows.
Here is my configuration:
gmime - 2.5.8
glib - 2.28.1-1 and then I tried it with 2.20.5-1
libiconv 1.9.1 (because this is the latest version available as Windows binary)
I've attached an email which causes the problem - maybe you are able to
reproduce this at your end.
Best regards from Germany

Betreff: Niedecken -install QCM 3.5
Jürgen, I just want to confirm / inform, that we will go for the combination of
QPSC3.5 and QCM3.5 at this site. Even, if we know that both versions are still
prerelease, it is the only solution we can rely on (due to our common
experiences at "DIE ZEIT"). Please remember, that this customer originally
ordered a QPSE system and we changed this to the combo. best regards Klaus
