Subject: Garbled display of UTF-8 encoded mails
Date: Tue, 23 Nov 2010 21:11:08 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <874ob7g5r7.fsf@turtle.gmx.de> (raw)

Hi,

during the last weeks I encountered a problem viewing articles (mainly
mails) with non-ASCII characters, e.g. a German Umlaut "Ü" is displayed
as an octal digit, \334.  This happens only if the message is encoded
like this:

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

It does not happen with charset=iso-8859-1 or Content-Transfer-Encoding:
quoted-printable (thus you cannot reproduce it with articles from
Gmane).  Any idea what might have caused this?

The bundled Gnus from the emacs-23 branch does not have this problem.

Cheers,
       Sven
