the problem is about it's subject. it not encode right. and the kmail had not detect it ? or kmail only can read utf-8 charset encoding at the mail list view?
Thunderbird has same problem. We can't read charset from subject.
is there any way to detecting charset encoding? may be microsoft outlook express and microsoft outlook more wisely?
When detect a encoding, more text is needed. If OS language is Chinese, when auto detect fail, Outlook and express will use GBK as default while Thunderbird or Kmail use utf8. It is just lucky this time I think.
This bug has only been reported for versions before 4.14, which have been unsupported for at least two years now. Can anyone tell if this bug still present? If noone confirms this bug for a Framework-based version of kmail2 (version 5.0 or later, as part of KDE Applications 15.12 or later), it gets closed in about three months.
Just as announced in my last comment, I close this bug. If you encounter it again in a recent version (at least 5.0 aka 15.08), please open a new one unless it already exists. Thank you for all your input.
