RFC 2047 says in section 5: + An 'encoded-word' MUST NOT appear within a 'quoted-string'. So I think this patch is wrong.
If I read that RFC correctly, the right encoding for the string "\"Wehikuł czasu"\" is: "=?utf-8?Q?=22Wehiku=C5=82_czasu=22?=" Looks like there's more to the problem than simply changing a regexp. Probably we should use some functions from rfc822.el for proper parsing (I've checked, this file existed in Emacs 18, so it should be available everywhere). -- [PATCH] vm-mime.el:vm-mime-encode-words creates garbled X-VM-v5-Data https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/323979 You received this bug notification because you are a member of VM development team, which is the registrant for VM (defunct).

My proposed fix is to change vm-vars.el:vm-mime-encode-headers-words-regexp so it doesn't span over " marks. (see patch) After this change, string is encoded as follows: "\"=?utf-8?Q?Wehiku=C5=82?= czasu\"" _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~vm Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~vm More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
