Description mhhoepfner 2002-05-14 14:12:50 UTC
(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package:           knode
Version:           0.7.1 (using KDE 3.0.0 )
Severity:          normal
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
Compiler:          Not Specified
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

When I send an answer to a posting the sent charset is us-ascii. But I have configured my knode to iso-8859-15.
This bug does not come always. Sometimes the sendet charset is correct.
The sendet charset is always correct when I post the first posting of a new thread.

I hope You understand what I mean. I'm german and my english is very bad.

As already said in the news thread, its the desired behaviour of KNode to use   
us-ascii if your articles don't contain any special charcters, even if your   
default charset ist iso-8859-15.

Hello,
Sure, it should even send these articles without any MIME-Headers and
save some bandwith.

The bug is still there on KNode/0.10.4, KDE 3.5.5:
<5872298.213DNC1iMv@burcheri.albasani.net>
I tried all charsets and sent a message with special characters. But the result is always us-ascii, 7Bit.

I have to admit, this problem is only on PPC. I can't reproduce on x86.
