17797 - [Dogfood] Auto-Detection disabled in displaying mail attachments

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(MailNews Core :: Internationalization, defect, P3)

Description

[Katsuhiko Momoi]

** Observed with 11/2/99 Win32 build (1999110208) **

With this new build, I am not able to use the Japanese auto-detect and display JIS or SJIS
attachments. When I turn it on without turning on "jaclassic", I only see Latin characters.
It was failing for EUC before but this looks like a total failure -- it seems that the module
is simply not engaged.
By the way, JPN auto-detection is working for Browser.

Attachment view for SJIS is part of Smoketest and it fails due to this problem.
I've desiganted this ad Dogfood for Mail/attchment viewing for Japanese. It needs to at least work
for JIS and SJIS.

I want thi fixed for M11 since it is a regression from a few days ago and certainly from M10.

I can see SJIS attachment (netscase ja, one of the smoke test data) using
today's release commercial win32 build (installed by the installer).

After talking it over with nhotta, it was determined that the problem is in leaving the
following line blank in teh prefs.js file.

user_pref("mail.charset.detector", " ");

Unlike the user_pref("intl.charset.detector", " ");, this line cannot be left blank in the prefs.js.
It must be deleted.
This is thus an invalid bug.
