Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 64948

(MailNews Core :: Internationalization, defect)

Description

[marina]

I can not reproduce it with ascii or accented chars, observed with 2001-03-21 build
Steps to repro:
- compose a message in russian (koi8-r);
- use a ":" in header without a space ( when there is a space after ":" i don't
see this problem);
- send the message out ;
//note: a bar get inserted after the ":"

Same problem as bug 72569.
Reassign to jgmyers, is this really a dup of bug 64948? 
MIME decoder is not removing CR,LF,TAB. I think it's a bug of MIME decoder. The 
flag 'eatContinuations' is set to TRUE so it's supposed to removed CR,LF.

The MIME code *is* removing the CR,LF--if it didn't there would be three bars.  
Per the MIME and RFC 822 specifications, the code is not supposed to remove the 
TAB.

Please debug with attached data. I see 0D 0A 09 in the decoded string.
Whether it shows bars or not depends on the font for the thread pane.

I still see the problem (CR/LF not removed), I pulled the three this morning 
which includes the fix for bug 73989.

Comment 12

[John G. Myers]

I verified in a debugger using the attached mailbox that the CR/LF are being 
removed by MIME_DecodeMimeHeader()'s call to MIME_StripContinuations().

nhotta: precisely what steps are you taking to see the CR/LF?

Comment 13

[nhottanscp]

You are right, they are removed. I put a break point at a wrong line, sorry.

John, you mentioned the tab does not have to be removed. But what about when the
header is used for reply/forward? Should the tab also be kept?
