Header decode problem

Howdy Paul,

Now on Gmime 2.4x as you know, and I don't remember quiet correctly, but I
think you fixed this a few time ago in Gmime 2.2x.

You may remember this particular situation, that this message doesn't have
an email address on the From: header, but only on the Return-Path:, and
after some tests I told you that RoundCube uses the Return-Path: when no
email available on the From: header.

So, attached there's how this look's on MSO2007 on the message
preview/reading, and when I reply to it.

Going to sent you the link to the full raw message.

On this, can you state the problem, a gmime 2.4x / MSO2007 / sender's email
client?

Which one?

Jorge,

I don't think so.

In this case, there *is* an address, but it's just plain invalid.

Using the Return-Path address in the envelope structure would be a
usable work-around. I'll consider it.

Definitely a sender's email client problem: the From: header doesn't
contain a valid sender address.

Understood Paul!
I have plus one thing for you, relative to encoding.
Before the upgrade to >= 2.3.6, this worked OK.
A report message from MantisBT.
I'm going to send the raw message to your private email.
The strange is that, on MSO2007 it just suppresses the non-ascii chars, but in RoundCube for example I can see them OK. But remember, before the upgrade (were using 2.3.2), it worked OK on both sides.

Can you take a look and see what can be wrong?
If a bug in dbmail or mantis that should create a more compatible message?
Mantis version still the same.

Jorge,
