Package: fetchmail
Version: 6.3.21-4
Severity: normal
Tags: l10n
Dear Maintainer,
emails generated by fetchmail when it fails to connect to a remote
server for downloading emails (and when connection is restored)
translate the Subject header field as follows (this is spanish):
Asunto: =?UTF-8?Q?autenticaci=C3=B3n?= de fetchmail correcta en
[email protected]
Previous versions of fetchmail, and I supose that current version
too when localization is disabled (LC_ALL=C) would say:
Subject: fetchmail authentication OK on [email protected]
AFAIK, the header field name should remain in english (Subject,
not Asunto) no matter which language is used for the subject body.
