Just as a self reference (since I'm unable to identify the bug right now) in reportbug.submit the function send_report() is where the message composition happens. in the 'for (header, value) in headers' the Subject header is correctly displayed as in utf-8 format, likewise after the 'rfc2047_encode_header(value, charset, mua)' but then again below in the 'message.as_string()' it's displayed with '=?utf-8?......:' while nothing in between adding the header and converting the message changed anything; in particular, the message shows the encoded headers even right after the for loop. -- Sandro Tosi (aka morph, morpheus, matrixhasu) My website: http://matrixhasu.altervista.org/ Me at Debian: http://wiki.debian.org/SandroTosi _______________________________________________ Reportbug-maint mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/reportbug-maint
