current cvs version is badly BROKEN

current cvs version is badly BROKEN

[Vladimir Volovich]

Hi!

with current cvs version any attempt to send a message with 8-bit
cyrillic text leads to sending it in internal mule encoding instead of
mime encoding (mime headers are okay).

previewing (plain and raw) does not show a problem. The following is a
line with cyrillic text:

▄©▄Ю▄ч▄я▄п ▄ъ▄у▄Ю▄п.

Best,
v.

Where did you put the 8-bit cyrillic text? In the body or the subject?
What is your setting to send it in 8-bit?

Test text: Здравствуйте!

The test Cyrillic text of this message should be encoded in 8-bit. So
does the text in the subject.

I've put it into the body. I did not test whether 8-bit text is broken
in the subject with current cvs version (as it is in the body).

I've gotten the current cvs version and run gnus with the following
~/.emacs file (no ~/.gnus), and the behavior seems to be still broken:
cyrillic text in the body of this message (in the quote below) is sent
not in koi8-r but in internal mule encoding.

I can not reproduce the bug.  Did you use unplugged mode to send the
mail?  Anyway, you can trace message-encode-message-body to see what
happens in the buffer " message temp". The body is supposed to be
encoded as 8-bit text.

no, i used exactly the same ~/.emacs file as i've sent to you in
previous mail. my gessages are sent via smtp server (see
custom-set-variables in that file).

Got it. It is because smtp-send-it uses a multibyte buffer to copy the
encoded 8-bit message from Gnus, which results double-decoded.  Some
workarounds are needed.

Fixed. Note that you need recompile message.el too.
