Description Frank Steinmetzger 2010-05-10 16:33:38 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.4.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

I just received an email with several attachments, of which some contain umlauts (öäü) with an inline encoding statement in the file name:

------=_NextPart_000_0039_01CAF036.F769B280
Content-Type: audio/mid;
	name="=?iso-8859-1?Q?alles_verg=E4ngliche.mid?="
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment;
	filename="=?iso-8859-1?Q?alles_verg=E4ngliche.mid?="

In the preview's attachment list, right after loading the attachment, the names are shown correctly, but then immediately change to "iso-8859-1" instead of "alles vergängliche.mid".

Created attachment 43435 [details]
Screenie of wrong display of attachment names

Oops, "right after loading the attachment" should read "right after loading the mail".

Addendum: I just discovered that, when I view the source of such a message, the displayed names of the attachments in question change from "ISO-8859-15" to their correct name.
