Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:58.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/58.0
Build ID: 20171211020921

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open an email with non-ascii characters (e.g. a message in Polish)
2. Save the message as html
3. Open the message in Firefox


Actual results:

The html version of the message does not display characters such as ĄĘŁ, because of missing '<meta charset="utf-8">' tag


Expected results:

The html version of the message should properly indicate what encoding is being used.
Did the email include any character encoding information? If so, what is the exact line?

Seems like this might be dup of bug 792270
