• Bug#1079726: aerc: does not open mail with attachment of Content-Type:

    From Nilesh Patra@21:1/5 to All on Sat Aug 2 07:00:01 2025
    thanks for maintaining aerc in Debian!

    I finally got around looking at it. I had lost the d-private mail in
    question and had to bounce it from archived mail, which is likely why
    I kept stalling. This is on me, though.

    in the index view, aerc prints an error about an email it cannot parse:

    By index view, I assume the thread view that you get while opening and
    browsing through aerc?

    error: could not get structure: unknown charset: unknown charset: charset "unknown-8bit": htmlindex: invalid encoding name

    the email at hand has an attachment of:

    Content-Type: text/plain; charset=unknown-8bit
    Content-Disposition: inline
    Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

    ... Assuming so, I can't repro this. Neither in the thread view, nor
    after opening the mail. This is on version 0.20.0-2+b1

    this is a d-private email so I cannot attach it here, but you can find it by looking for Message-ID: <ZsYES-17ISWbsmOt@debian>

    Could you please confirm if you still see it?

    Best,
    Nilesh
