Description Zé 2006-12-12 22:09:56 UTC

Version:           1.9.5 (using KDE 3.5.5, compiled sources)
Compiler:          Target: x86_64-mandriva-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.17-5mdv

Lets suppose i want to write a new message, so i open the compositor window, and from an existent mail message window i drag an address to the TO: field in compositor window.

Now what happens is if the dragged address haves some charathers with accents like for example "Götz" <goetz@gmail.com>, after dragged to compositor window in the address field appears like this:

"=?utf-8?q?G=C3=B6tz?=" <goetz@gmail.com>

So for what i see kmail isnt able to support utf-8 in address fields when dragging to there mail addresses.

Can anyone please take some time to fill this bug, its very annoying not to be able to drag&drop mail addresses.

I can confirm this on Debian testing, kmail 1.9.5 (KDE 3.5.5.dfsg.1-6). 

Bug appears when dragging an address from header display to a message composer dialog. I tried fancy headers and brief headers with same result. If I write the email address myself in the text field of the composer window, mark it and drag it to the address field it works like expected.

BTW: The address was encoded using iso-8859-1 as I saw in source, but it is utf-8 in the address field I was dragging to.
