Camel part of the fix for Lewing's bug #39204. Second half of the
patch should also fix it so that text/plain parts that are
detected as being text/html are rendered as html (not that I agree
with this mind you, but corporate customers want this "feature").
* camel-mime-part-utils.c
(simple_data_wrapper_construct_from_parser): If the part is
text/html and doesn't have a charset and we are able to find a
charset in the meta tags of the html content, set the charset
param on the content-type.
(camel_mime_part_construct_content_from_parser): After setting the
content object on the mime part, re-set the content-type of the
content object back to the one from the parser (as it may contain
changes from the original - see changes made to the ct in
simple_data_wrapper_construct_from_parser for details).

CAMEL
A generic Messaging Library
----
Introduction:
-------------
Camel is a generic messaging library. It supports the standard
messaging system for receiving and sending messages. It is the
messaging backend for Evolution.
The name "camel" stands for ... nothing. Open area of development there.
You know, that "bazaar" thing. Maybe could we organize a big contest on
gnome-list to find the best explanation :)
Camel draws heavily from JavaMail and the IMAP4rev1 RFC. People
wanting to hack on a provider should read the JavaMail API
specification, but CMC and MAPI are of interest too.
Organization:
-------------
The library is roughly a set of abstract classes, some kind of generic
"interfaces" (IDL interfaces, not Java interfaces).
Particular implementations are called providers.
Here are the basic objects:
* CamelService : An abstract class representing an access to a server.
Handles the connection and authentication to any server.
* CamelStore (CamelService): A hierarchy of folders on a server.
* CamelFolder : An object containing messages. A folder is always
associated with a store.
* CamelMessage : An object contained in folders. Is defined by a set
of attributes and a content. (Attributes include: the date it was
received, the sender address, .....)
* CamelTransport (CamelService): A way to send messages.
