This is a new test don't use cygpath:

I'm just looking into this issue and I do not quite understand how you came up with the filename in this example. Above you mention that the mail is in UTF-8. However, when I look into this email using `od -t x1', the multibyte sequence in your example is e4 bd a0 e5 a5 bd, rather than the aforementioned UTF-8 sequence e6 a1 8c e9 9d a2. Nor does it match the aforementioned GB2312 sequence d7 c0 c3 e6. Can you please explain how the multibyte sequence in the example is related to the above GB2312 and UTF-8 sequences?

Sorry, there are two examples, the first using æé, and the second using äå. You may test either.

æéïe6 a1 8c e9 9d a2, GB2312=d7 c0 c3 e6
äåïe4 bd a0 e5 a5 bd, GB2312=c4 e3 ba c3

Thanks,
