Description Heiko Rommel 2003-04-08 12:34:40 UTC 
Please fill in this template when reporting a bug, unless you know what you
are doing.
Description of Problem:

When importing a Netscape address book into evolution, things work almost
perfect. Almost.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. create a Netscape address book with contacts
2. create group of contacts in Netscape
3. export and import that address book into Evolution (LDIF)

Actual Results:

Special characters in single contacts (like ü in Müller) are converted
correctly, groups of contacts are converted, but the names contained in
that groups are NOT converted correctly.

The import format is LDIF + UTF8.
Evolution is 1.2.2.

changing subject to a more specific one.
this is related to bug 253856, perhaps it's even the same?

Comment 10 André Klapper 2008-11-24 11:02:59 UTC 
Need an exact example vcard, otherwise this is a dup of bug 560681.
