Description Åsmund Skjæveland 2002-04-29 07:03:12 UTC
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.

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==?=
