So the bug is that if you turn 8bit support on you have to check if an incoming message as encoding information?

And is this bug confirmed by Sun?

The setContent bug is in their bugparade "in progress."
The bug I talk about is not the same but similar. It is "correct" code in SMTPTransport that simply hit the "in progress" bug: the proposed a workaround for the bug, the should use it in their code.

I have not found this SMTPTransport bug reported in their bug db. ALso I had no time to write a unittest and report it. Any volounteer is welcome!

The bug is:
- read a 7bit quoted-printable message from a stream
- send it via SMTPtransport to a server supporting 8bitmime and having activated 8bitmime support in the SMTPSession.

You receive a message with headers updated to report 8bit content, but content unaltered and still containing the quoted-printable stuff.

Furthermore if you read an 8bitmime message from a stream and you sent it via STMPTransport to a server not supporting 8bitmime it is not converted to 7bitmime.

So we have 2 bugs here.
I have not reported the bug almost for time reasons but also because the main bug is in their db since 2001 and it is still "in progress"...
