Glad that you have found the problem!
Many many thanks for the help!
vm-fsfemacs-mule-p is an internal variable of VM. Please don't change it.
OK.
The only problem with MS email clients was that they used to incorrectly
label windows-1252 as iso-8859-1. But I haven't seen this problem for a
while. So it is likely that they fixed it. If so, nothing special is
needed for handling windows-1252 any more.
Very good.
This subject line problem in Summary buffer is also fixed now.
However, this fix for the Summary buffer only works for plain text
messages. For a message sent in rich text mode, the subject line
shows the octal codes.
It might be a problem with cached-data. If so, typing `j'
(`vm-discard-cached-data') should fix the problem.
Excellent---it did solve the problem (but see below).
There are still some
outstanding problems with the cached-data handling, which will be fixed in
8.2.0 release.
If it is not a cached-data problem, please file a bug report with a sample
message.
Discarding the cache fixed all subject lines but one. This is a message in
utf-8, which I put in the file octal_subject_message at
http://www.ime.usp.br/~yoshi/TMP/VM/
I've tried looking at this message with Emacs/VM with default settings, with
basically the same result. The behaviour in my two emacses is a little
different, though: one of them shows octal code and the other shows the
corresponding iso-8895-1 characters.
Thanks and best, Yoshi
