           Summary: can't open attachments with German Umlaute
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 2.0.97
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: gassauer at kde.org


Version:           2.0.97 (using KDE 4.7.0) 
OS:                Linux

IMHO attachments with German Umlaute er not handled correctly
saving such attachmetns produces "?" instead of 'ä' or similar and can't be
opened with konqueror -only after manually replacing 'ä' with 'ae' the file can
be opened.

I classify it as major, because normal users will not be able to handle this
situation = sort of "loosing" the attachment

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
try to open a pdf with Umlaute

Actual Results:  
okular message - can't open the pdf file

Expected Results:  
okular should open the file

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.37.6-0.5-desktop
Compiler: gcc
