The bug description above is still valid. I have the same problem in ubuntu 10.10: I hope this additional information will help:
How to replicate the bug: Create a group of contacts in which the persons names include the "åäö" (for example "göran"<go...@...com>, "åke"<a...@...se> ). Then start the mail composer and send a mail to the group. Then in the sent message a name like "Göran" will look like: =?iso-8859-1?Q?G=F6ran?= Its not so nice when your in a business and need to send mails to many different groups. Please note that the problem only occurs when you use a group from the contacts list. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/478690 Title: contact group in Evolution not handling ISO 8859-1 characters correctly -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
