Re: [PATCH] Use built-in gnutls support in Emacs 24



I'm having increasing problems sending to an increasing number of sites
which use some horrid Microsoft SMTP server which appears to be
incredibly stupid and anal about character sets used in headers,
rejecting "LATIN-1".

The problem appears to be in the encoding of the User-Agent header since
normally that's always the only place the errant string appears in the
outgoing messages I send.

I know I can turn off `mime-edit-insert-user-agent-field' and that will
fix it for the current release and for that one auto-inserted header,
but obviously that's not really the point of my query.  :-)

I'm wondering if anyone else has been seeing this kind of bounce, and
I'm also wondering if there's some alternative to calling the charset
"latin-1", something which would be more amenable to the M$ "stuff".

Here's a sample bounce showing the full error message:
