Mickey,

Which repository type are you using?  And could you send me a sample message
that has this problem, as an attachment?  I'd like to see one.

Subject: Re: Chinese(double-byte) character problem with headers

I've tried a few minutes ago, too bad, it fails!

when I call

MimeMessage.getHeader("subject") in void service(Mail mail)

the header in message is already a mess (i.e. "???????" ), I cannot do
anything about it, so I think the problem is located in transport layer,
any idea?
