Is this a regression? You're testing M12, right?

Yes, this is a regression and i'm testing the 1999-12-17-M12 (second build of this day)

Rich, were there changes around this area (attachment) last week?

I can reproduce this with the attached data. I attached that file and sent as HTML mail. After received the mail, I did reply quote, all accent characters were not displayed (and not included in the sent mail). Rich, could you look at the problem?

This problem can be reproduced with linux latest build.(1999122012-M12)

How are we dealing with attachment without charset headers in reply? The one sent from 4.71 has a charset parameter set to iso-8859-1 and the one from Mozilla does not. The former can be quoted without a problem but the latter cannot. Isn' this a known issue?

I'll look into it. - rhp

Naoki, if we include Latin 1 accented characters in the body using Mozilla, then the attachment is quoted correctly. Don't we have a bug which addresses a similar issue: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20997 Could this bug be resolved in conection with that one?

That's right, the patch for 20997 also fixes this problem. Thanks, Momoi san.

Go for it.

The fix checked in.

Over to marina for verification.

verified as such in 2000-01-28-M14 Win build, the problem doesn't occur any longer.
