Subject: [sup-devel] Ruby 1.9 encoding fixes
Date: Thu, 31 Dec 2009 15:36:48 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1262302618-20503-1-git-send-email-rlane@club.cc.cmu.edu> (raw)

This patchset fixes the string encoding issues on Ruby 1.9.1. The general
strategy is to treat raw messsages as binary and ensure that everything is
passed through Iconv or String#ascii before being displayed or stored. I tested
an earlier version of this patchset (with more debug checks) on around 700
thousand mails including plenty of spam. It'd be nice if someone tested
signed/encrypted mails to make sure I didn't break anything there.

The only effect on Ruby 1.8 should be asciifying the raw header/message view,
and maybe a little speedup due to reusing the RMail message header instead of
parsing it ourselves.
