I'm sending an SMIME-encoded message using openssl. This requires to
keep the plain text non-encoded.
There's already existing message.el code that sets
`message-inhibit-body-encoding' to t. But if the encoding is
inhibited, we should not assert if Unicode was not encoded. Thanks to
this patch I can now send SMIME-encoded email that has e.g. German
umlauts in it.
I found the existing support for sending SMIME-encoded email lacking.
For a while, some mail clients would detect the sent email as signed,
but others not. I can contribute the openssl signing code that works
for me now if there's interest.
regards,
Oleh
