[Mutt] #3346: non-ASCII character in Subject not correctly handled with $edit_headers under UTF-8 locales



#3346: non-ASCII character in Subject not correctly handled with $edit_headers
under UTF-8 locales

 Under UTF-8 locales and with $edit_headers set, when I reply to some mail
 (see attached mailbox, which contains 1 message to reply to) with an
 accented character in the Subject, the character gets corrupt when I quit
 the editor. This can be seen in the compose menu and when one edit the
 message again (Mutt sends a file with an invalid UTF-8 sequence to the
 editor).

 This bug does not occur when the non-ASCII character occurs early enough
 in the Subject header. I wonder whether this problem is related to header
 folding.

 The bug doesn't occur under ISO-8859-1 locales.

 I can always reproduce it with Mutt 1.5.20-6026 under Mac OS X 10.4.11,
 but not under Linux.
