Bug 113524

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.90)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources

For some stupid reason, evolution2 sends the encoding "iso-8859-8" instead of "iso-8859-8-i". This renders the text sent from the user as "reversed" on my display. 

The problem is definetly evolution. However...

I have seen some webmails doing the same... Mozilla renders those mails as "iso-8859-8-i", also OE. IMHO, KMail is the only one who complies to the RFCs in this matter, but it is just not how it's used in the world.

I was thinking of fixing this by doying a hack in which the mail will return "iso-8859-i" when it sees "iso-8859-8". I also want the user to be able force it to be "iso-8859-8" if he decides to. 

Here is my idea (BTW, it does not work... i definetly got something wrong here). If you have an better idea, please tell me:
