Eudora encodes the whole subject, starting before the 'Re: '-part. THis causes the current build to duplicate the 'Re: '. Sample code of Eudara subject: 'Subject: =?iso-8859-1?Q?Re:_eg_s=E5g_ein_link?=' This ends up like this 'Subject: Re: Re: bla bla', when you reply to the message wiht Mozilla

using branch buildid:2001060713 on win98 I did not see Re: duplicated when replying to Eudora message. On win98 I have Eudora 4.0 version. Is this still happening on current builds?
Oh yes. I just saw it a few days ago when i replied to this mail: [snip] X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2462.0000 [snip] Reply-To: moznynorsk@yahoogroups.com Subject: =?iso-8859-1?Q?Re:_=5Bmoznynorsk=5D_spr=E5kpakka_for_091?= [snip] It depends on how the encoding is done, and not necessarily on Eudora...
Sheela, I think you should also give a sample of how that mail you tested looked like. When Eudora (and OE6) encodes a subject line with non-ASCII text it encodes the whole subject line including the 'Re: '-part , as yo see in my sample. While Mozilla encodes only the particular non-ascii letters. And expects received mail to be made the same way.
Yes you are right. I cut and pasted the subject from your comments and it does duplicate when replying to that message.

Verified - this problem was resolved with the fix for bug 21267. I tested this on 5/21/02 using Eudora 5.0 with branch build 2002-05-12-17-7.0PR1. The duplicating problem is gone, now works correctly.
