Description Daniel Resare 2002-08-06 13:35:44 UTC
Description of Problem:

When I enter swedish character e (a-ring) or any other non-ascii char in the
To:, or Cc:-field in the mail composition view it gets represented as two glyps,
one box and one underscore. When i enter more chars (this time ascii, the broken
representation of the swedsh char is removed (the box is emptied)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
evolution-1.0.8-4


How Reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start evolution
2. Select 'New message'
3. Enter a non-ascii char in the 'To:'-field (or cc:)

Actual Results:
<empty boxy>_ is written

Expected Results:
the entered non-ascii char

Additional Information:
Entering non-ascii in subject and message field works prerfectly. changing LANG
to "C" makes this proplem disappear
