229962 - charset parameter in attached vCards should be utf-8, not utf8

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(MailNews Core :: Backend, defect)

Description

[J Luh]

Mozilla (as of Thunderbird 0.4) sends attached vCards with

Content-Type: text/x-vcard; charset=utf8;

The charset parameter should be "utf-8" with a hyphen.

That's the only lxr match containing 'charset=utf8;'

Attachment: change utf8 to uft-8

I don't have the knowledge to compile and test this, but there's the patch
nonetheless.

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-AT; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040113
-> encodes the personal vCard file with  "charset=utf8;" and 7bit
content-transfer-encoding, which it is able to import;

-> doesn't add any charset info for attached vCards, exported by Palm Desktop
4.0.1, uses 8bit content-transfer-encoding and is not able to import this (nor
even tries to; my vCard file I appended contained many addresses)
