Description Espen Stefansen 2010-01-13 13:05:47 UTC 
I have a lot of tasks in Exchange, but when Evolution shows them, the norwegian letters is not shown correctly. Instead of æøå, it's replaced with the following "letters": µ, ° or Õ.

In addition, I can't add a task that contains æ, ø or å in Evolution when it's a mapi-task. A normal task in evolution is just fine.

This is the warning i get when i try to create a mapi-task with øæå in it:
(evolution:3488): calendar-gui-WARNING **: e-cal-model.c:950: Could not create the object!


This is Fedora 12:
evolution-2.28.2-1.fc12.i686
evolution-mapi-0.28.2-1.fc12.i686

This is also a problem in Ubuntu 9.10
evolution 2.28.1
evolution-mapi 0.28.2

When creating calendar appointments with æ,ø, or å in them, a pop up states "unknown error".
Comment 3 Rune Schjellerup Philosof 2010-03-10 09:48:55 UTC 
Akhil: Only weakly related to that bug.
That bug is about the characters not being displayed correctly, while this is about not being able to create tasks and appointments in the calendar.

Thanks for a bug report. This got fixed within bug #600389, but it requires evolution-mapi 0.30.1+. For writing such tasks you would need latest openchange svn trunk (I have revision 1889), as there were necessary some changes in that part as well.
