Description Uri David Akavia 2004-05-29 11:01:32 UTC 
I receive a lot of messages from windows users, messages encoded with
Windows enoding (probably windows-1252). Windows encoding do not appear in
evolution's possible character encodings, so it is hard to choose them.

The main problem is quotes, or lack of them.

I know this is an encoding problem, because they look good in Mozilla, when
selecting the Windows encoding.

I can attach example messages, if necessary.
Comment 1 André Klapper 2009-01-12 20:10:26 UTC 
Please provide the exact encodings that are required.
Comment 2 Uri David Akavia 2009-01-13 09:42:15 UTC 
I can't provide exact encodings, since I haven't used evolution for about 4 years. I think it might be the ones mentioned in the original message, but I don't know.
I also don't have any example messages, so I'm closing this as INCOMPLETE.
