retitle 505540 m_evolution does not handle line breaks properly
severity 505540 normal
thanks

Investigating a bit more, I discovered that the bug is specific of
m_evolution. Here is what I found in the output of my
evolution-addressbook-export.

The standard actually mandate to break lines at the 75th column, to
cope with devices with small number of columns. When lines are broken,
a newline and a space should be inserted.

The problem with m_evolution is then that it does not handle line
breaks properly. I'm no awk hacker, so I'm not able to propose a patch
out of the blue :-/

Cheers.
