(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***) Package: kmail Version: 1.2 (KDE 2.0) Severity: normal Compiler: gcc version 2.95.2 19991024 (release) OS: Linux 2.2.14 i686 (compiled sources) KMail version: current cvs To reproduce this bug reply to the mail "Bug#16282: Encoding in composer" by Michael Haeckel (Nov 30 19:12:13). This mail uses koi8-r as charset. If you reply to this mail (and quote its contents) and then send it (or save it in the drafts folder) with enabled "sign message" button you will observe that the sent/saved message is broken. The problem seems to be that the message is passed to gpg via the following code line: write(pin[1] input.data() input.length()); If you have a look at qstring.h you will see that (the undocumented) QString::data() returns QString::latin1(). But obviously koi8-r and latin1 are not compatible. Therefore all russian characters are converted to \0. This has two effects: 1.) The signature is worth nothing because a latin1 version of the koi8-r message is signed. 2.) When the output of gpg (that is the signed message) is read it is truncated at the first \0. Next week I will try to find a solution for this problem. Regards Ingo

I just committed it to prevent further merging problems. If someone finds a problem with this change then please tell me. Regards Michael Häckel
