Steps to reproduce:
- Configure incoming mail server and set it to create X record
on incoming mails (X can be any model with a chatter)
- Create a CSV file and set the encoding to UTF-16
- Send the CSV file through Gmail to the Odoo instance
- Go to model X and open the created record
- In the chatter, click/download the CSV file
- Open the downloaded file with Geany (or any file editor that can
show the file encoding)
Issue:
The file encoding is not the same as the original file (utf-8 instead
of utf-16).
Working with Outlook.
Cause:
The difference between Outlook and Gmail is that Gmail provides the
charset of the file.
The content of the mail is retrieved using `email` python lib.
The lib will try to retrieve the charset of the file and fallback
on `ASCII` if not available, then return the decode content.
```python
def get_text_content(msg, errors='replace'):
content = msg.get_payload(decode=True)
charset = msg.get_param('charset', 'ASCII')
return content.decode(charset, errors=errors)
```
Example:
content = b'd\x00a\x00,\x00,\x00,\......'
Outlook:
charset = 'ASCII'
return => 'd\x00a\x00,\x00,\x00...'
Gmail:
charset = 'UTF-16LE'
return => 'da,,,,,\n,,,,,\....'
In the post process of the attachment, the content is encoded in
'utf-8' (to then encoded in base64) before creating the attachment
record.
Content encoded to 'utf-8':
Outlook: b'd\x00a\x00,\x00,\x00...'
Gmail: b'da,,,,,\n,,,,,\n....'
Therefore, when writing the file on the disk, the encoding is based
on the binary content.
Solution:
When parsing the mail, add the encoding charset to the `info` variable.
Then, when creating the attachment, use the charset in `info` (or
fallback on 'utf'8' if no charset set) to encode the content.
