hi,

we are using IMP3 and we have our regional language working fine in
most cases. Today I saw an email that did not have regional characters
displayed correctly. After some investigation, here is what I see in
the headers:

Return-Path: <xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Delivered-To: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Received: (qmail 12882 invoked by uid 99); 9 Feb 2005 23:04:33 -0000

Resent-Message-ID: <xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
X-Originating-IP: 195.14.168.195

It appears that the text is encoded with UTF-8, but IMP does not know
that, and is displaying wrong characters.

The Only way I could tell about UTF-8 is the FROM header:

From: =?UTF-8?Q?Emilija_=C5=A0vobait=C4=97?= <xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Is there anything that can be done?

thanks,
Karolis
