Testcase email

Version:           2.1.0 (using KDE 4.6.4) 
OS:                Linux

When I reply to a mail that has umlauts and is base64 encoded the umlauts are shown correctly in the message viewer. But when I reply to this mail the umlauts are broken in the composer. Looks like the multibyte characters are taken as latin1 instead of utf8.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Load the attached mail and try to replace. I've stripped the the To: and From: headers.


Expected Results:  
UTF8 umlauts should be shown correctly.

OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.37-12-desktop
Compiler: gcc
Comment 1 Christophe Marin 2011-08-28 19:27:24 UTC 
in KMail settings, composer / charset: is "keep original charset when replying or forwarding" checked ?
Comment 2 Christophe Marin 2011-08-28 19:28:53 UTC 
(in that case, see bug 251740)
Comment 3 Rolf Eike Beer 2011-08-28 20:10:27 UTC 
Yes, this option is checked.
