[Download RAW message or body]

Package: kmail
Version: 1.3.1 (using KDE 2.2.0 )
Severity: normal
Installed from:    compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc version 2.95.3 19991030 (prerelease)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.2.18
OS/Compiler notes: 

I'm not sure if this is a bug, however.

When sending an email to something with non-ascii characters (å, in this case), the \
To field in the source email is incorrect

Instead of being the actual latin-1 text, it's encoded as \
=?iso-8859-1?q?nj=E5rd=40altair=2Edhs=2Eorg?=

(njård@altair.dhs.org).  I'm not sure if the RFC says this, but I think it's supposed \
to be latin1.  At least unix mail(1) does latin1.

Example of this is setting your SMTP server to altair.dhs.org, and then emailing \
njård@altair.dhs.org (it won't figure it out).  Also give it a try with your own SMTP \
server.

njård@altair.dhs.org is a valid email address, and it's an alias to me.  feel free to \
use it for testing.
