[sup-devel] [Heliotrope] Bug: Cannot use UTF-8 characters in subject

[Michael Stapelberg <michael+sup@stapelberg.de>]

Hey,

I tried sending an email to this list and used an UTF-8 character in the
message subject. Turnsole (or RMail?) doesn’t like that, and I got the
following exception:

$ ruby -I lib -I ../heliotrope/lib bin/turnsole

Also, I noticed that the tempfile which turnsole used to store my mail was gone
afterwards :(. The message was not saved as a draft in Heliotrope either. GMail
does that pretty well, so it would be great if we could keep up here.

Best regards,
Michael
