Subject: Strange symbols in decrypted message
Date: Tue, 16 Oct 2012 21:41:28 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87a9vm6w7r.fsf@sklar.v.cablecom.net> (raw)
Hi,
I encrypted + signed a message with C-c C-m C-e (GnuPG, PGP/MIME) and send it to
the test server at adele@gnupp.de (after having sent an email with my public key
as attachment to adele@gnupp.de). It came back decrypted (so public key
encryption works), but some characters in the original message were not
displayed correctly.
I simply used "foo bar" as message text (without quotes), and the message
contained my signature, starting with the separator "--". The decrypted message
sent back to me contained "foo bar=20" instead of "foo bar" and "=2D-=20"
instead of "--". I check the charset, it said us-ascii, so a subset of
utf-8.
What went wrong?
Cheers,
Marius
