Hi,

I just put a fix for multibyte encoding in headers into CVS. Basically=20
KMMsgbase::encodeRFC2047String is completely rewritten now.
Headers are no longer corrupted by cutting single characters in the middl=
e.

The length guessing algorithm is now O(n*log(n)) instead of O(n). I think=
=20
that is accecptable, since it is only used when writing mails and headers=
 are=20
usually not _that_ long.

Additionally this function now automatically uses base64 instead of=20
quoted-printable if more than 16% of the characters are non-us-ascii. Tha=
t=20
makes non-latin headers much shorter. 16% is the mathematical border, whe=
re=20
base64 becomes shorter.

Also a header like
Michael@Haeckel.Net (Michael H=E4ckel), someuser@host.org
should now be encoded correctely.
I don't know, if that is the reason, why some people are not able to send=
 to=20
more than one address.

I would also like to backport that change to the KDE_2_1_BRANCH, if no=20
problems arise, since it is a big improvement for users in Asia.

Regards,
Michael H=E4ckel
