* ulm@gentoo.org (Ulrich Mueller) | VM 8.0.9 would encode the word "R�cksto�d�mpfung" in the Subject line as | follows: | | =?iso-8859-1?Q?R=FCcksto=DFd=E4mpfung?= | | which is still somewhat readable to the unaided eye. In VM 8.0.11 this | now becomes the following: | | R=?iso-8859-1?B?/A==?=cksto=?iso-8859-1?B?3w==?=d=?iso-8859-1?B?5A==?=mpfung | | Setting vm-mime-encode-headers-type to Q doesn't help much: | | R=?iso-8859-1?Q?=FC?=cksto=?iso-8859-1?Q?=DF?=d=?iso-8859-1?Q?=E4?=mpfung | | If I interpret RFC 1522 correctly, the method of VM 8.0.11 is plain | wrong here, since an encoded-word must be surrounded by white space and | is not allowed to start in the middle of a word (RFC 1522 section 5): Is this supposed to be fixed in 8.0.12? I recently had an corrupted INBOX due to some wrong Elisp in the parsed X-VM-data header... If this should be fixed, I'd try to reproduce that and do an report. R'
