           Summary: kmail character encoding when forwarding
           Product: kontact
           Version: 4.3.2
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: mail
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: roger.larsson at e-gatan.se


Version:           4.3.2 (using 4.3.1 (KDE 4.3.1) "release 6", openSUSE 11.2)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.31.5-0.1-desktop

Got a mail encoded as

Content-Type: text/html;
  charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

with Swedish national characters - shows up as html and displays correctly.
Show source reveals that the characters are multi char encoded in the mail...
("=F6" is "ö")

--- like this ---
Hej!<br><br>S=F6ndag den 13 december =E4r det julshow ute=A0 i stallet i =
Gu=
mmark.
--- end snip ---

When forwarding the encoding changes to the more correct
Content-Type: Text/Plain;
  charset="iso-8859-15"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

But the contents of the body/inline forwarded message does not change.

Forwarded message shows up correctly in kmails sent folder but not in other
readers.
