[jira] [Created] (NET-677) UTF-8 supporting in IMAP

Trần Tiến Đức created NET-677:
---------------------------------

             Summary: UTF-8 supporting in IMAP
                 Key: NET-677
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NET-677
             Project: Commons Net
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Trần Tiến Đức


Hello, I found that the org.apache.commons.net.imap.IMAP uses hardcoded `__DEFAULT_ENCODING` which is "ISO-8859-1". 

 

Which means every lines read & write are decoded/encoded by "ISO-8859-1". I wonder is there any way to make my IMAPClient use UTF-8 encoding?

 

BTW, I had experimented two attempts:

 - Create a new MyIMAPClient inheriting IMAPClient and override `_connectAction_()` to re-assign `_reader` and `_writer` to use UTF-8 encoding

 - Copy & Pasting the IMAP and the IMAPClient to my local project, change `__DEFAULT_ENCODING` to UTF-8

 

None of above  works
