Hi! Using mutt 1.3.24i.
Some MUAs (like PostMe or Jubii mailer (Mime.MMail, ver: 2,4,0,15) used by Lycos), produce badly formated quoted-printable encoded words in the header fields. For example, "Jubii mailer" sent me this mail (only copying relevant headers): +=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+= >From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Dec 24 17:30:10 2001 Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Jubii mailer (Mime.MMail, ver: 2,4,0,15) From: =?iso-8859-1?Q? "Lycos_Pr=FCgelpause" ?= <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Du wurdest herausgefordert To: "" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: Multipart/Alternative; boundary="------------Boundary-00=_8CWUHW9GSSJ4GPWWKFN2" Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: Text/Plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+ The 2nd Content-Type "header" is because Lycos sends out HTML mail. Anyways, PostMe also sends out mails with a From: which is just as broken. As you can see, the "quoted-printable" encoded-word contains both SPACE and "; neither of these characters is allowed according to RFC 2047. However, the IETF motto is: "Be strict in what you produce and tolerant to what you receive.". Mutt should be able to handle this, even if it's broken.
