Description Matthew Barnes 2009-06-21 12:26:42 UTC
Forwarding from a Fedora bug:
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=506353


Description of problem:

When using evolution-mapi to access an exchange mail account, the retrieved
email text doesn't show the localized characters, which are present in original
email. Characters such as á é ã â aren't shown in the message.

I received several emails with Portuguese characters and this tag,
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> is
present in it but the Portuguese characters disappear when opening/previewing
an email.


I think this bugreport is related:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution-mapi/+bug/387222


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

evolution-data-server-2.26.2-1.fc11.i586
evolution-help-2.26.2-1.fc11.noarch
evolution-perl-2.26.2-1.fc11.i586
evolution-mapi-0.26.1-1.fc11.i586
evolution-2.26.2-1.fc11.i586

How reproducible:

Receive an email including localized characters (using evolution-mapi), such
as, á é ò ã, and see if you can see them in the email text.

Actual results:
Localized characters disappear from email text body.

Expected results:
Full email text body is shown in it's original format and (charset?)
