Description Pedro Silva 2009-06-16 20:12:10 UTC
Description of problem:

When using evolution-mapi to access an exchange mail account, the retrieved email text doesn't show the localized characters, which are present in original email. Characters such as á é ã â aren't shown in the message.

I received several emails with Portuguese characters and this tag,
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> is present in it but the Portuguese characters disappear when opening/previewing an email.


I think this bugreport is related:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution-mapi/+bug/387222


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

evolution-data-server-2.26.2-1.fc11.i586
evolution-help-2.26.2-1.fc11.noarch
evolution-perl-2.26.2-1.fc11.i586
evolution-mapi-0.26.1-1.fc11.i586
evolution-2.26.2-1.fc11.i586

How reproducible:

Receive an email including localized characters (using evolution-mapi), such as, á é ò ã, and see if you can see them in the email text.
  
Actual results:
Localized characters disappear from email text body.

Expected results:
Full email text body is shown in it's original format and (charset?)
