           Summary: hebrew emails sent from evolution2 are displayed
                    reversed
           Product: kmail
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kmail-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: cuco3001 yahoo com


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.90)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources

For some stupid reason, evolution2 sends the encoding "iso-8859-8" instead of \
"iso-8859-8-i". This renders the text sent from the user as "reversed" on my display. \


The problem is definetly evolution. However...

I have seen some webmails doing the same... Mozilla renders those mails as \
"iso-8859-8-i", also OE. IMHO, KMail is the only one who complies to the RFCs in this \
matter, but it is just not how it's used in the world.

I was thinking of fixing this by doying a hack in which the mail will return \
"iso-8859-i" when it sees "iso-8859-8". I also want the user to be able force it to \
be "iso-8859-8" if he decides to. 

Here is my idea (BTW, it does not work... i definetly got something wrong here). If \
you have an better idea, please tell me:
