Dear Maintainer(s),

some of the messages i receive have the following subject field:

Subject:
 =?windows-1255?B?QXZuZXQvSURUIFNlbWluYXI6RU1DLSBUaGUgQ3VycmVudCBMb29wIGFuYWx5c2lzIG9mIHNpZ25h
	bHMgMjAuMy4xMw==?=

that's the way it shows, both in the messages list and in the message's title
and headers.

however the from field seems to be similarly encoded, i can see it correctly in
both places:

From: =?windows-1255?B?4OHw6CDp+fjg7P==?= <avnet.israel@avnet.com>

what would you think of it?

maybe it happens because the long subject line gets split?

thanks a lot for your time and consideration,
alex

Hello Alex,

could you append a mail as example in source format (Strg + u)?
I believe you get this mail already with this missformed subject header.

Regards
Carsten
