yes, Thunderbird and many other IMAP clients are able to retrieve the correct headers from Gmail (either accidentally or by puspose).
the whole thing depends on the way how the client requests the headers from the Gmail server. it turned out that using the ENVELOPE imap command works around this problem since GImap responds to such a request correctly. thunderbird has a hidden config option to force the ENVELOPE command. (mail.imap.use_envelope_cmd = true) (ref: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Using_Gmail_with_Thunderbird_and_Mozilla_Suite#IMAP ) (ref: http://groups.google.com/group/Gmail-Help-POP-and-IMAP-en/browse_thread/thread/85dce8c24385d56f/0a91eec6ed6e0f32?lnk=gst&q= ) it would be very good to have a similar config option for evolution..... but after all, it _IS_ a Gmail bug ... :-( -- evolution character encoding problem in "from" field https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/184537 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
