kmail - illegal character in input stream!
Hi all, i am using KDE 3.1 on SuSE 8.1. I've problems with KMail, it seems that Emails with german charsets are not displayed correctly. I got the following msg in the console WARNING: QuotedPrintableDecoder: ü illegal character in input stream! Ignoring. WARNING: QuotedPrintableDecoder: ß illegal character in input stream! Ignoring. for every character in the viewed email which is not part of the us-ascii (?) charset. The charset int the content-type in the message header is correctly set ... Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" 'Set encoding' in the 'View' menu is set to Automatic, but if i set it manually to ISO-8859-1 or ISO-8859-15 the problem is the same. I've set up SuSE (and KDE) with english language maybe that's the problem? Strange is, that i got a HTML email, which is displayed correctly. (Content-Type: multipart/alternative; ...) May i've to set a certain environment variable or could that be a kde bug? thx in advance brunft

The kmail in 3.1 seems to be somewhat broken, here I cannot send anything from it, is there an update/fix available ?
