Richard,

I've forwarding a bug in Mairix reported by a Debian user. I've worked
with Vincent to confirm and provide a test case for this issue. I'm
forwarding our complete correspondence on this issue but you can, as
always, check out the bug and necessary attachments in the Debian bug

Let me know if you have additional questions or if there's anything I
can do to help with this.

Thanks Vincent, for getting us here and thanks Richard for maintaining
Mairix!

Mako

Package: mairix
Version: 0.20-1
Severity: normal

mairix finds no matches in UTF-8 locales. For instance, in ISO-8859-1:

vin:~> locale
LANG=POSIX
LC_CTYPE=en_US.ISO8859-1
LC_NUMERIC="POSIX"
LC_TIME=en_DK
LC_COLLATE=POSIX
LC_MONETARY="POSIX"
LC_MESSAGES="POSIX"
LC_PAPER="POSIX"
LC_NAME="POSIX"
LC_ADDRESS="POSIX"
LC_TELEPHONE="POSIX"
LC_MEASUREMENT="POSIX"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="POSIX"
LC_ALL=
vin:~> mairix testé

But in UTF-8, on the same machine:

vin:~> locale
LANG=POSIX
LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8
LC_NUMERIC="POSIX"
LC_TIME=en_DK
LC_COLLATE=POSIX
LC_MONETARY="POSIX"

Something's going on here. I *only* use mairix in UTF-8 locales and, as
you can imagine, it works just fine. Are you sure you have generated
your locale data?

Regards,
Mako

Yes, UTF-8 works fine with other applications.

Also, I most often use mairix in ISO-8859-1.

My point was that it works fine with Mairix. I can't reproduce your bug.
I'm pretty sure you've got something screwing going on with your system.
