Hi,

Don't know if it's a bug or not...

When a message is imported from the newsgroups, the subject is truncated at about 20 characters when it is displayed in the forum.
Is it possible to change that to have the entire subject ? or is it a limitation of the nntp import script ?

Thanks

That should not happen, the subject will be truncated to 100 chars (max length) but definitely not 20.

If you could send me a raw NNTP message with which this is happening, I'll take a look.

Here it is.

In fact, I looked at the raw message and it's probably because of encoding, the raw subject looks like that :

Subject: Re: =?ISO-8859-1?Q?Probl=E8me_d'acc=E8s_au?=
 =?ISO-8859-1?Q?x_pages?=


and on the forum the subject is truncated at the end of the line of course.

Is it not possible to use characters with accents in the subject ?

Thanks,
Béa
