489064 - Notifications with non-ASCII characters have double line breaks

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 486206

(Bugzilla :: Email Notifications, defect)

Description

[Rimas Kudelis [use needinfo to ping]]

Since about a few weeks, All bugmails that contain at least one non-ASCII letter (such as ü), are shown with double line breaks. I thought it was a Shredder bug, but it appears not. I suspect it could be because these notification e-mails are being QP-encoded, and contain an extra "=0D" combination at the end of every line of body. This seems to be a violation of RFC2045 part 6.7 rule (4).

For example, here's an excerpt from an older bugmail which is displayed correctly:



Jens M=C3=BCller <[e-mail]> changed:

           What    |Removed                     |Added
----------------------------------------------------------------------------



And here's an excerpt of a fresh bugmail which is displayed with double linebreaks in body:



Michael 'Coce' K=C3=B6hler <[e-mail]> changed:=0D
=0D
           What    |Removed                     |Added=0D
---------------------------------------------------------------------------=
-=0D


It's obvious that the =0D combinations are unnecessary here. And indeed, they only break the display.

To reproduce:

Comment on a bug and use at least one non-ASCII character, and you will see.
