sidepop - issue #9

Encoding trouble


Posted on May 9, 2011 by Helpful Rhino

What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Retrieve any message with Cyrillic encoding (KOI8-R encoding) (like Проверка). 2. The message will contain not vald Body or subject.

Maybe you already have a workaround?

Thanks.

You probably already know this, but keep in mind that sidePOP is alpha. It's not meant for production use at all. It has some instabilities in how it works

Hi, the error with encoding only if I send the email from Mozilla Thunderbird. If I sent the message from Gmail account - it work good. Only trouble with subject. It contain =?KOI8-R?B?9MXT1A==?=, but must be "Тест". I check it with Base64 and it work Encoding.GetEncoding("KOI8-R").GetString(Convert.FromBase64String("9MXT1A==")) - returns for me valid value.
