Description Ricardo Mones 2017-03-17 08:30:01 UTC
Steps to reproduce:

• Have some header in extraheaderrc, for example:
  $ echo "X-Test-Header:" >> ~/.claws-mail/extraheaderrc
• Start Claws Mail and open Compose window
• Select "X-Test-Header:" in one entry's combobox
• Input some value on the entry, for example "test value"
• Send the message (probably 'Send later' is enough, but haven't tested)
• Go to the folder your sent messages are saved and view source of the just
  sent message (or queue, if you 'Send later')

Expected line in message: "X-Test-Header: test value"

Actual line in message: "(null) test value"

That's a regression, so probably should be addressed before release. Probably related to http://git.claws-mail.org/?p=claws.git;a=commitdiff;h=c0505b80
but not sure.

Thanks in advance,

Same problem when sending a message after adding a custom header (provided that the compose window's header name is editable).
I also noticed that such header has no space between the header name and value, like:
(null):foo

A git bisect session has confirmed the first commit where this is broken is c0505b80.

Looking at the patch seems the compose_untranslated_header_name() added in that commit should not return NULL if the header is unknown, maybe should simply return the header as is. Rationale: unknown headers are not translatable, so they're already untranslated.

I'll give this a closer look during this week-end, hopefully fixing it (be)for(e) the string freeze.

    Fix bug 3785: custom headers not stored in queued messages (and thus,
    not sent).
