            Bug ID: 329611
           Summary: Kmail does not appear to properly decode UTF-7
                    quoted-printable emails
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.12
          Platform: Kubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: kde at csamuel.org

I have a contact who uses UTF-7 encoding in Evolution to stop Exchange from
base64'ing his emails as vger.linux.org apparently breaks the base64 encoded
emails by adding lines in plain text.

Thunderbird displays his messages correctly but Kmail shows his > quote
character as the encoded form of +AD4- instead (and the same for any other
quoted-printable parts).

His messages are labelled as:

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-7"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
MIME-Version: 1.0

and are otherwise unremarkable.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Get an email from someone in utf-7 (directly, or via a mailing list).
Actual Results:  
Looks odd, doesn't display correctly.

Expected Results:  
It should be decoded from UTF-7 quoted-printable.
