Hello,
you need an email with e.g. ISO-8859-1 or ISO-8859-15 encoding
write in the subject: Test Ä-Ü-Ö
write the same in the body: Test Ä-Ü-Ö
check if it's a plain-text mail (it's easier to read this mail.
Retrieve this mail using the geronimo-mailapi. You can doublecheck the
result trying the sun javamail implementation.
The subject ending is converted correctly. I think this is a result of bug:
GERONIMO-3842. But the encoding of the message-part only works with UTF-8.
There is no correct conversion to other charsets like ISO-8859-1.
This is how to receive the message and write into a file:
Store store;
Properties props = new Properties();
Session session = Session.getInstance(props);
FileOutputStream fos = null;
try {
store = session.getStore("pop3");
store.connect(SERVER, USERNAME, PASSWORD);
// Get folder
Folder folder = store.getFolder("INBOX");
folder.open(Folder.READ_WRITE);
// Get directory
Message messages[] = folder.getMessages();
for (int i = 0; i < messages.length; i++) {
ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new
ByteArrayOutputStream();
messages[i].writeTo(baos);
// write mail into a file
File file = new File("path_to_file");
fos = new FileOutputStream(file);
fos.write(baos.toByteArray());
}
folder.close(true);
store.close();
} catch (NoSuchProviderException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (MessagingException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
if ( fos != null )
try { fos.close(); } catch ( IOException e ) { }
}
This is a sample mail created with mozilla thunderbirs:
