Description Sergey Y. Afonin 2009-09-04 20:08:08 UTC

Version:           1.12.1 (using 4.3.1 (KDE 4.3.1), ALT Linux i586)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.30-std-def-alt10

When the "view attachment is smart" is selected a file name displayed if
koi8-r used and not displayed if utf8. But external viewer running correctly.

When the "view attachment is inline" is selected a file name displayed correctly in both cases.

example with utf-8 сyrillic file name

Comment 3 Martin Koller 2009-09-04 23:45:33 UTC

Hm ... probably I don't understand your report.
I open the mail in kmail 4.3.1 (File -> Open) and test all different "View attachments" modes.
In all modes I see the filename as бугагага.jpg so with cyrillic characters.
What am I missing ?

Comment 4 Sergey Y. Afonin 2009-09-05 00:09:56 UTC

Hm. You are right. It is decode properly when open via "File -> Open". But it is not when mail in box (possible imap only ?)

Ah ok, you see it with IMAP. I'll specify it to be IMAP related.
I don't have an IMAP account. Can't test, sorry.

Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report.

KMail2 was released in 2011, and the entire code base went through significant changes. We are currently in the process of porting to Qt5 and KF5. It is unlikely that these bugs are still valid in KMail2.

We welcome you to try out KMail 2 with the KDE 4.14 release and give your feedback.
