#3328: mutt should handle unencoded whitespace in Q-coded strings -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: [email protected] | Owner: mutt-dev Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: trivial | Milestone: Component: mutt | Version: 1.5.20 Resolution: | Keywords: -------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
Comment(by vinc17): The robustness principle must not have the side effect to interpret something valid incorrectly. If Subject: =?us-ascii?Q?Ein neuer?= is a valid Subject field whose subject is =?us-ascii?Q?Ein neuer?= (according to RFC 2047 it seems to be allowed -- but I haven't checked it entirely), then the MUA must not try to correct it (even though you may think that such a subject will never happen, it may in practice, say, in a discussion on mail RFCs, and not dealing with it correctly can be very bad). -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.mutt.org/trac/ticket/3328#comment:3> Mutt <http://www.mutt.org/> The Mutt mail user agent
