It causes mime text parts that aren't UTF-8 to be translated into UTF-8.
does this apply only for rules or even for things like bayes?
I mean, when a iso-8859-* word is already tokenized in bayes, will it be
missed?
(i hope I did get bayes properly)
Will enabling normalize_charset cause some immediate benefits or
disadvantages for us?
It mainly means that rules can assume UTF-8, and you don't have to
allow for other character sets. And spam can't avoid tests by using an
uncommon character set.
These day so much email is in UTF-8 (or the ASCII subset) that it wont
make all that much difference.
now a question raised if non-UTF8 spam will be caught more likely when
normalizing...
