2016-03-04 Thread Xu Wang
Does anyone else have a problem to use "A" to call abook to add the sender's name and email as an entry if that name has an accent? For me the name receives a strange questionmark and some gibberish. The name displays fine in mutt so It think I have utf8 configured. Kind regards, Xu
