The code in rmail-cease-edit is meant to re-encode the entire message in cases where rmail-show-message decoded the entire message. It should not operate in the case you described. (setq character-coding (mail-fetch-field "content-transfer-encoding") is supposed to get the encoding specified by the message header for the entire message, and it ought not notice anything specified in/for individual mime parts. When this fails for you, what value does character-coding get? If it is non-nil, can you step thru mail-fetch-field and see how that happened? Is it that the header specifies this field and the message also has mime parts? If so, rmail-cease-edit needs to operate only on the "body" and not on any mime parts. In addition, rmail-cease-edit ought to check for editing done in message headers, and install the edited headers into the message. Ideally it should make a list of the headers initially shown so that it can tell if the user deleted any headers and delete those from the message.

The problem was that the Rmail buffer was narrowed to the entire message, whereas mail-fetch-field is documented to assume that the buffer is narrowed to just the headers. (Similar problems were with calls to rmail-is-text-p and rmail-get-coding-system.) I fixed that by narrowing to the headers' portion only. > Is it that the header specifies this field > and the message also has mime parts? > If so, rmail-cease-edit needs to operate only on the "body" > and not on any mime parts. If the header specifies content-transfer-encoding, then Rmail will decode the entire message body, including the MIME parts, by this encoding. So it is correct to re-apply that encoding in rmail-cease-edit to the whole body. > In addition, rmail-cease-edit ought to check for editing done in > message headers, and install the edited headers into the message. > Ideally it should make a list of the headers initially shown > so that it can tell if the user deleted any headers and delete those > from the message. It looks like rmail-cease-edit does not support editing the headers at all at this time. But that is a separate problem; I will file a new bug report for it. ------------=_1234020905-8268-1 Content-Type: message/rfc822 Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Received: (at submit) by emacsbugs.donarmstrong.com; 24 Jan 2009 11:58:20 +0000 X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.2.5-bugs.debian.org_2005_01_02 (2008-06-10) on rzlab.ucr.edu X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Bayes: score:0.5 Bayes not run. spammytokens:Tokens not available. hammytokens:Tokens not available.
