+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #324604 +++ From: irios <irios@proin.es> To: submit@bugs.gnome.org X-Mailer: bug-buddy 2.12.1 Subject: Non-ascii characters generate trash in address lists Distribution: Ubuntu 5.10 (breezy) Package: Evolution Severity: Normal Version: GNOME2.12.1 unspecified Gnome-Distributor: Ubuntu Synopsis: Non-ascii characters generate trash in address lists Bugzilla-Product: Evolution Bugzilla-Component: Contacts [was: Addressbook] Bugzilla-Version: unspecified Description: Description of Problem: Non-ascii characters in a name in the address book appear jumbled in certain fields. How it happens: I have names in my agenda with non-ascii chars, such as: Guillermo Fernández Gª-Rojo Magüi Miño I input them in the adress book, and everything looks fine. I write a new email for them. I click on the "Para" (TO, I guess) button and I get a window where I can select addressees. All my contacts appear (looking fine) in the left panel titled "Contactos". I click on Magüi Miño, and she is highlighted. I click on the "Añadir" ("Add", I guess) button beside the panel titled "Para". Junk appears on the panel titled "Para". It reads: "=?ISO-8859-1?Q?Mag=FCi_Mi=F1o?=<mminho@telefonica.net>" I click on "Cerrar" ("Close"), and go back to the email window. The "Para" field reads "Magüi Miño", which is OK. I send the email. She receives it. I want to add Magüi to my friends list. This list already featured "Andrés Pascual" and "Fernando García". I select the business card view; individual addresses look fine, but the list looks already jumbled. I add Magüi. More junk appears on the card view. I want to send a message to the list: I right-click on it and select "Send Message", and a new email window appears; the "To" field is full of junk. I send the message nonetheless; everybody gets it. I view the sent message in the "Sent" folder; It looks fine. ------- Bug created by bug-buddy at 2005-12-20 12:41 ------- Bugreport had an attachment. This cannot be imported to Bugzilla.

Can someone please review this patch?
So for contact list you just show the list name. Sounds reasonable to me. Commit.
