reply: Use RFC 2822/MIME wholly for text format template

2013-08-17T07:06:08Z

Previously, reply's default text format used an odd mix of RFC 2045 MIME encoding for the reply template's body and some made-up RFC 2822-like UTF-8 format for the headers. The intent was to present the headers to the user in a nice, un-encoded format, but this assumed that whatever ultimately sent the email would RFC 2047-encode the headers, while at the same time the body was already RFC 2045 encoded, so it assumed that whatever sent the email would *not* re-encode the body. This can be fixed by either producing a fully decoded UTF-8 reply template, or a fully encoded MIME-compliant RFC 2822 message. This patch does the latter because it is a) Well-defined by RFC 2822 and MIME (while any UTF-8 format would be ad hoc). b) Ready to be piped to sendmail. The point of the text format is to be minimal, so a user should be able to pop up the template in whatever editor they want, edit it, and push it to sendmail. c) Consistent with frontend capabilities. If a frontend has the smarts to RFC 2047 encode the headers before sending the mail, it probably has the smarts to RFC 2047 decode them before presenting the template to a user for editing. Also, as far as I know, nothing automated consumes the reply text format, so changing this should not cause serious problems. (And if anything does still consume this format, it probably gets these encoding issues wrong anyway.)

Decode headers in reply

2010-04-13T16:23:54Z

When headers contain non-ASCII characters, they are encoded according to rfc2047. Nomtuch reply command emits the headers in the encoded form, which makes them hard to read by humans who compose the reply. For example instead of "Subject: Re: Rozlučka" one currently sees "Subject: Re: =?iso-8859-2?q?Rozlu=E8ka?=". This patch adds a new GMime filter which is used to decode headers to UTF-8 and uses this filter when notmuch reply outputs headers. Signed-off-by: Michal Sojka
