Re: [Nmh-workers] nmh architecture discussion: format engine character set

2015-08-13 08:43:35
Hi Ken,

- For _display_, try to convert all of the characters to the native
character set (yes, using the locale, dammit!).

OK.  Is that using POSIX, or does it require something extra?

- Reconvert such messages to 'canonical' standard while sending.
Well, I think just for addresses; leaving everything else as an
encoded word might not be harmful.  But I'd have to think about it.

The only thing I can think of is if something somewhere suggests a
preferred format when multiple are valid, like an ASCII subject should
be just the subject.  Kind of like how it's annoying Android base64s
bodies IIRC.

Cheers, Ralph.
