Is there somebody who managed to develop an email to Org-mode bridge without having charset problems? (No, I do not use Emacs as a MUA[4]) Disclaimer: This is not directly related to Org-mode but I guess there are people here with the very same problem. I am using a procmail[1] with an entry to forward emails containing a keyword in the subject into my inbox.org (where also MobileOrg[2] entries are written to). This is quite handy since some tasks arrive at emails and I want to capture this everywhere (smartphone, webmail, ...) using a simply email forward. Unfortunately I get weird stuff like uuencoded things, UTF-8 in ASCII, ... which messes up my inbox.org and I am not able to read it afterwards.[5] I guess this is because procmail and formail[3] – the tools I am using to extract mail infos to append to the org-file – are 7-bit-only or similar. If this is the case, I guess I'll have to find a different approach for this purpose. Any ideas? 1. http://www.procmail.org/ 2. https://github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android/wiki/ 3. http://www.linuxcommand.org/man_pages/formail1.html 4. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mail_user_agent 5. I can give examples if you want. -- Karl Voit
