Setting QA contact to Shirley, please reassign if necessary.

QA contact to Kasumi. Thanks.

racham: do you want to assign this bug to me? I am working on the related subject.

Sure. Thanks. Giving this one to Roy.

Change of nsLocalFile where mResolvedPath and mWorkingPath stores UTF-8; not FS. nsLocalFile::xxxxNativeyyyy() returns FS; whereas nsLocalFile::xxxxyyyy() returns UCS2 However, nsLocalFile::xxxxNativeyyyy() will depreciate in Windows platforms with MOZ_UNICODE on

See the same problem on linux. Changed the platform to all.

Now in Mozilla 1.4 RC1, we can import non-English addressbook in filename. :)

It also happens when information in the address book is written in non-English characters.

Is this still an issue with current builds? Tested with Mozilla 1.8a6 build 2004112806 on WinNT4 to import LDIFs with umlauts and other characters. WFM. But I'm not sure if it works now for Japanese and Chinese characters in filename or path.

Japanese user reports to Bugzilla-jp that he can't reporoduce. http://bugzilla.mozilla.gr.jp/show_bug.cgi?id=2455#c8 Mac OS X 10.3.9 Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20051117 SeaMonkey/1.5a Marking worksforme.
