There were several changes in the code related to MIME header encoding between 8.0.9 and 8.0.12. Can you please verify if this is still an issue in later VM versions (current 8.0.* or 8.1.0-beta)?
-- vm: vm-mime-encode-headers may mess up recipient addresses https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/490021 You received this bug notification because you are a member of VM development team, which is the registrant for VM. Status in VM (View Mail) for Emacs: Confirmed Status in “vm” package in Debian: Confirmed Bug description: When using recipients with full names containing accents, the encoding done by vm-mime-encode-headers can produce incorrect addresses if a space is missing after a comma. For instance: To: [email protected],François Fleuret <[email protected]> calling vm-mime-encode-headers produces To: [email protected],Fran=E7ois?= Fleuret <[email protected]> Hence the first address is not valid anymore. This does not happen if the space is present.
