error: Cannot send unencoded text.

error: Cannot send unencoded text.

[Dmitry Paduchih]

Hi.

File rfc2047.el contains at the line 165 (or near) the following form:

		   (if (or (message-options-get
			    'rfc2047-encode-message-header-encode-any)
			   (message-options-set
			    'rfc2047-encode-message-header-encode-any
			    (y-or-n-p
			     "Some texts are not encoded. Encode anyway?")))
		       (rfc2047-encode-region (point-min) (point-max))
		     (error "Cannot send unencoded text."))

Can You, please, fix this asking y-or-n-p?
First, it seems to be inconsistent to ask user and then produce an
error on one of his choices.
Second, I have adjusted my settings so to send unencoded `Subject',
and I don't understand why this statement is disagree or why it should
ask me to confirm my settings every time I send message.

I upgraded Gnus to the CVS version from Apr 11 2001 found at the Manoj
Srivastava's page but it contains this form too.

Thank You for your attention and efforts,

(Patch) Cannot send unencoded text.

Hi,

Here is a patch which is to allow sending messages with unencoded
headers. I mean a possibility to do that, the defaults say to encode
headers.  I wrote in my yesterday letter the reasons why it is needed
in my opinion. But it is only kinda work-arround.
Seriously I think it is better to redesign the concept of
message-options if I understand it correctly.

Can somebody commit this patch?

Thanks in advance,
                Dmitry

Oops, please forgive me. I have found much simpler solution:

;;; Hm.
(add-to-list 'rfc2047-header-encoding-alist '("Subject" . none))

It simply wasn't documented. :)
