charset problems?
Hi, I try to send mails via qmail-inject into my ezmlm mailinglist. My problem - some strings, like =22 , will not be correctly displayed. It will replaced with a char. Now I have tried to replace =22 with =3D22, it looks like good, for some Mailreaders, but some one, e.g. t-online, ignore the =3D and dont convert =3D into =. Where is my Problem, wrong charset? Here my way to send the mails: cat msg.txt | /var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject -n | home/vpopmail/domains/test.com/testliste msg.txt contains: rom: Testliste [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Testliste [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Testnewsletter Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable =2200123330 =3D22001200123330 thanks for your help thomas

From: Martin Jespersen [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Fri, 13 Oct 2000 00:00:41 +0200 Hi all i have written an sms forward filter in perl that allows me to trigger an s ms message to me if a mail matches my criteria. i then send an sms including the sender of the mail and the subject line. Now my problem is this: I live in denmark and thus it happens pretty often that a subject line incl udes non-standard ascii characters. subject lines with non-standard ascci characters are iso-8859-1 encoded, ex ample follows: =?iso-8859-1?Q?N=E5_min_skat_-_jeg_g=E5r_til_afdelingsm=F8de_i?= =?iso-8859-1?Q?_Bredgade_nu_-_jeg_ringer_senere=2E_Kys_til_dig_fra_mig?= =?iso-8859-1?Q?_=2AS=2A?= this subject actually reads: Nå min skat - jeg går til afdelingsmøde iBredgade nu - jeg ringer senere. Kys til dig fra mig*S* (if this looks weird don't worry -it's danish :) ofcourse this looks pretty silly in an sms message så what i would like is a way to convert this back to ascii I assume you mean you want to convert it back to iso-58859-1. I did this in tcl a while back. It's actually fairly simple, ?charset?Q?text? means that 'text' is encoded into ascii using quoted printable. quoted printable basically just says that '=dd' should be replaced with the code in hex. I think the actual conversion is a one liner in perl...something along the lines of 's/=(..)/chr(hex($1))/eg' (Note this is untested.)

Now my problem is this: I live in denmark and thus it happens pretty often that a subject line includes non-standard ascii characters. subject lines with non-standard ascci characters are iso-8859-1 encoded, example follows: =?iso-8859-1?Q?N=E5_min_skat_-_jeg_g=E5r_til_afdelingsm=F8de_i?= =?iso-8859-1?Q?_Bredgade_nu_-_jeg_ringer_senere=2E_Kys_til_dig_fra_mig?= =?iso-8859-1?Q?_=2AS=2A?= this subject actually reads: Nå min skat - jeg går til afdelingsmøde iBredgade nu - jeg ringer senere. Kys til dig fra mig*S* (if this looks weird don't worry -it's danish :) ofcourse this looks pretty silly in an sms message så what i would like is a way to convert this back to ascii I have tried everything i could find, and no perl module seems able to do this for me (including SGML::ISO8859). Neither have i found a binary or a sheel script or anything like it that works for me, but since every mailreader seems able to handle this, then i must conclude that there ARE exsisting tools for this conversion... Do you know of any? /Martin

Thorkild Thx for the pointer, i had no idea that it was Mime *shame* for those who cares the solution was the perl module MIME::Head /Martin
