Description Pavel 2015-07-22 10:03:40 UTC

When replying HTML message (in czech), automatic quote (in new message) encoding is messed up (instead of "ěščžšěčřž" there is "ÄÅ¡ÄÅ¾Å¡ÄÄÅÅ¾" ).
The message viewer shows the message correctly.

When replying non-html messages everything works fine.

Looks like it really depends on html/non-html, works same with messages from various senders.

In previous version (Debian oldstable) it worked fine, I've upgraded yesterday.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. recieve a html message in czech (or other non-ascii language)
2. press "reply" button
3. see what happened with characters with accents in quote

This bug has never been confirmed for a KDE PIM version that is based on KDE Frameworks (5.x). Those versions differ significantly from the old 4.x series. Therefore, I plan to close it in around two or three months. In the meantime, it is set to WAITINGFORINFO to give reporters the oportunity to check if it is still valid. As soon as someone confirms it for a recent version (at least 5.1, ideally even more recent), I'll gladly reopen it.

Please understand that we lack the manpower to triage bugs reported for versions almost two years beyond their end of life.

Just as announced in my last comment, I close this bug. If you encounter it again in a recent version (at least 5.1 aka 15.12, preferably more recent), please open a new one unless it already exists. Thank you for all your input.
