#37159 [Bgs->Csd]: imap_fetchstructure returns wrong encoding
ID: 37159
User updated by: oliver dot block at lycos dot de
Reported By: oliver dot block at lycos dot de
-Status: Bogus
+Status: Closed
Bug Type: IMAP related
Operating System: Unix
PHP Version: 5.1.2
New Comment:
With strong support of Mark Crispin, author of the
c-client library, it turned out, that the bug is neither
in php nor in the c-client library.
The cause of the behavior of the imap_fetchstructure
function is a bug in the imap server of my ISP.
It does not return imapr4 complaint data.
Best Regards,
Oliver Block

workaround:
check the header for existing
Content-Transfer-Encoding:
field if you receive an object returning encoding equal to
5.
If there is none, a 7bit encoding should be assumed
(according to RFC2045).

This is what IMAP c-client returns to PHP and we can't fix or change it
in any way.
If you consider it a bug - please report to c-client developers.
Thanks.

Description:
------------
applying imap_fetchstructure to a message return wrong encoding value,
if the message has NO Content-Encoding field.
Reproduce code:
---------------
$stream = imap_open($server, $username, $password);
$msg_struct = imap_fetchstructure($stream, $uid, FT_UID);
$encoding = $msg_struct->encoding;
Expected result:
----------------
If I apply this on a message with NO Content-Encoding field,
$encoding should be equal to 0 -- according to RFC2045, Sect. 6.1.
Actual result:
--------------
If I apply this code on a message with NO Content-Encoding field,
$encoding is equal to 5.
