Bug ID: 298349 Severity: major Version: Git (master) Priority: NOR Assignee: kdepim-bugs@kde.org Summary: kmail2 composer (still) fails to display non-ascii characters in quoted text on reply with some mails (only with nested multipart mime parts?) Classification: Unclassified OS: Linux Reporter: msch...@gentoo.org Hardware: Gentoo Packages Status: UNCONFIRMED Component: composer Product: kmail2 Hi, this bug has been there in the past and something about it has been fixed. I do not know any bug number, sorry. While this is working most ogf the time time, I just got an email where it still does NOT work. Displaying that email works quite fine for that particular email, but when I hit the reply button, all text that is transferred to the composer as quote is decoded twice or sowmthing like that producing strings like "ä" for a german a-umlaut (ä) for example. I had a quick look at the mail headers like "Content-Type:" and the Content-Type of the mime parts. It seems like kmail (-composer?) fails at understanding/decoding special crafted (nested?) mime attachements . I have compared a working mail and a non working mail, which both are quite similar and noticed the following differences: WORKING mail: ============ Header: Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="------------090808080701020801080608" Body: This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --------------090808080701020801080608 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable some umlaut: =C3=BC --------------090808080701020801080608 FAILING mail: =========== Header: Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="===============4151591153882929492==" Body: --===============4151591153882929492== Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="========GMXBoundary37091334746530755927" --========GMXBoundary37091334746530755927 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable some umlaut: =C3=BC --========GMXBoundary37091334746530755927 Content-Type: text/html; charset="utf-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <span>some umlaut: =C3=BC</span> --========GMXBoundary37091334746530755927-- --===============4151591153882929492== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline some footer --===============4151591153882929492==-- Reproducible: Always Actual Results: Non-ascii chars in editor are presented like "=C3=BC" instead of "ä" for example for some mails Expected Results: Non-ascii chars in editor are presented like "ä" properly mutt does it all right -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Kdepim-bugs mailing list Kdepim-bugs@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kdepim-bugs
