Hello, I recently got an email from a guy using Outlook and the mail's From header was encoded using ks_c_5601-1987. It looked as follows in raw: From: =?ks_c_5601-1987?B?U6mqcmVuIExhc3RuYW1l?= <soren@example.com> and mutt failed to properly display it. It shows as as S��ren Lastname . Using Thunderbird the name is fine there. I tried to do the same with this email encoding my name in ks_c_5601-1987 to demonstrate the issue, I hope I didn't mess up. Would be great if this could be fixed in mutt. Not knowing how that decoding works, quick googling suggests that an alternative name for "ks_c_5601-1987" is "uhc" and with this my system's iconv can properly decode the name: $ base64 -d <<< U6mqcmVuIExhc3RuYW1l | iconv -f uhc; echo Søren Lastname Best regards Uwe
