Actionmailer does not set charset on attachments
Reported by Fjan | May 25th, 2009 @ 01:31 PM | in 3.x
Actionmailer deliberately removes the character set from attachments (line 71 of part.rb simply says: ctype_attrs.delete "charset")
While this may make sense for pictures and binaries, there are several attachments types where a charset may be necessary, such as text files, html files and icalendar attachments.
One way to solve it would be to add something like: unless real_content_type.contains?('text')

I'm assigning this to you, Mikel. I imagine you know whether or not this issue is relevant?

This can be marked "needs more info" for now.

I found that line only in the old api. Does this mean that this issue is resolved/will be resolved once the old API is deprecated?

I just tried it on Rails 3 and this appears to be no longer a problem (it sets a "charset:UTF-8" on attachments by default now). Can be marked fixed as far as I'm concerned. Cheers.
