Package: vm
Version: 8.1.0-1
Severity: normal
I am using utf-8 locale both on the console and within emacs and vm
with w3m to read HTML in emails. I noticed that non utf-8 HTML Mime
attachments in emails (in my region, this is, most often, with iso-8859-1
charset) are not displayed correctly. If I save the attachment and use 'w3m
-dump' outside of emacs, everything is fine.
Modifying vm-mime.el as follows solves the problem.
$ diff vm-mime.el /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/vm/vm-mime.el
2269c2269
< (format "w3m -dump -T text/html" charset charset)
---
> (format "w3m -dump -T text/html -I %s -O %s" charset charset)
I am attaching below, the section of my .emacs file which may be relevant to
this problem:
