GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 80177
Pan 0.11.3 won't post if sender name contains Norwegian characters.

If I enter "Åsmund Skjæveland" as real name in my profile settings, I get an error message saying that the address is incorrect. (It doesn't say that it's the sender address that is wrong, although it does display it.) If I change the realname in the profile to "Aasmund Skjaeveland", everything is peachy, from Pan's point of view. This behaviour wasn't present in 0.11.2. Back then, I had proper Norwegian characters in my realname.
Created attachment 8016 [details] Screen shot of error message dialog.
Fixed in CVS HEAD, which gives me no error dialog/log entries and tries to post the message with a quoted From: header. Here was the output from a test run in --mute mode: From: =?UTF-8?b?w4VzbXVuZCBTa2rDpnZlbGFuZA==?= <aasmunds@student.matnat.uio.no> Subject: test post Date: Mon, 29 Apr 2002 12:23:55 -0500 Newsgroups: alt.test Path: not-for-mail Message-ID: <pan.2002.04.29.17.23.54.483679.25059@student.matnat.uio.no> User-Agent: Pan/0.11.91 (Unix) Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-Comment-To: ALL This is a test to see if the From: header is encoded correctly.<end of message>
