Problems with encodings in appointments (ZCO 6.0.4 )
Hello
We are experiencing problems while trying to use ZCO in appointments.
We've been trying to send invitations to an appointment using Outlook 2007 Russian until we found that Outlook uses wrong encodings and charsets. The body of an appointment is shown incorrectly in some clients (e.g. Zimbra Web Interface) while the VCalendar attachment seems to be OK.
Incorrect representation depends on Outlook settings, somehow. For example, with KOI8-R we have messages displayed correctly in Outlook on recipient's side but garbled in Zimbra Web Interfacel; utf-8 setting make things turn vice versa.
The same appointment invitation created on the same machine with the same Outlook version with original Exchange MAPI connector seems to be OK without any encoding problems.
Here is an example message:
As you can see, text/html alternative body is quoted-printable with "iso-8859-1", though it must be utf-8 or koi8-r (according to our Outlook settings) base64.Code:Return-Path: test3@tv-stream.ru Received: from zimbra2.rwsit.net (LHLO zimbra2.rwsit.net) (10.200.0.65) by zimbra2.rwsit.net with LMTP;
