Created an attachment (id=715) [details] Add support for French Lotus Notes 'Réf. :' prefix for email subjects French Lotus Notes prefixes the email subject with 'Réf. :'. This a French translation for 'Re:'. Claws Mail does not support such prefix yet. So the email subject quickly becomes: 'Re: Réf. : Re: Réf. : Re: Réf. :'. This makes emails threads between Claws Mail and French Lotus Notes quite difficult to read. The attached patch add support for the 'Réf. :' prefix for email subjects. The patch also moves the description of the subject_get_prefix_length() function closer to the definition of function. The patch was tested against an email sent by a French Lotus Notes. The test email is unfortunately private and cannot be attached to this bug for others to test the patch.
Thanks for the patch; it's uncomplete, though: this function has two implementations, one regexp-based for POSIX, one string-match based for Windows (due to regexp problems on Windows). That's why the function header was higher in the code.
OK. I will update that part too.
Created an attachment (id=719) [details] Add support for French Lotus Notes 'Réf. :' prefix for email subjects (with WIN32 part) Patch updated to add WIN32 support. The WIN32 part was not tested on Windows but tested on Linux thanks to a temporary change of the "#ifndef G_OS_WIN32" test. The header describing the subject_get_prefix_length() function is still moved closer to the function definition.
I forgot to say that the last version of the patch is against Claws Mail 3.7.2cvs20.
Applied, thanks ! (3.7.2cvs21)
