From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 Galeon/1.2.0 (X11; Linux i686; U;) Gecko/20020402 Description of problem: Evolution uses EUC-JP as default charset for Japanese, and message-body is encoded by base64. that's right. However we have long been used ISO-2022-JP for sending raw Japanese messages. Right now we can read base64-encoded e-mail with most MUA. but there are the people it doesn't like. for example, people which uses CUI MUA like mail and mailx, or want to check some e-mail with text. in these cases, base64-encoded e-mail may not be welcome. so in order that Evolution will get many users in Japan, I wish default charset for Japanese will be changed to ISO-2022-JP. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.if you have ~/evolution, please rename it to something or remove it. 2.runs evolution with LANG=ja_JP.eucJP 3.see mail preference. Actual Results: a default charset should be Japanese (EUC-JP) Expected Results: a default charset should be Japanese (ISO-2022-JP) Additional info:
Created attachment 53385 [details] Here's patch.
I've forwarded this to evolution-patches for comments before adding to our packages
