Re: [Httpmail-devel] Response from Hotmail - Encoding

Hi Dave,

> Try logging how Outlook Express does it.

Thanks for the tip.

Hotmail is responding with appropriate encoding.
When reading a chinese mail it uses the big5 encoding (Taiwan)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="big5"?>

So it does not uses Windows-1252 only, and that's logical.
Now the big question is : how comes it replied with big5 ?
What was special in the request ? Well, nothing.....
It was a standard request :

HTTPMAIL: 04:08:29 [tx]
PROPFIND
http://bay2.oe.hotmail.com/cgi-bin/hmdata/fa...@ho.../folders/ACTIVE
/
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<D:propfind xmlns:D="DAV:" xmlns:hm="urn:schemas:httpmail:"
xmlns:m="urn:schemas:mailheader:">
 <D:prop>
  <D:isfolder/>
  <hm:read/>
  <m:hasattachment/>
  <m:to/>
  <m:from/>
  <m:subject/>
  <m:date/>
  <D:getcontentlength/>
 </D:prop>
</D:propfind>

So I don't get it...
