David was kind enough to supply me with the answer to this a while ago. It's somewhere in the mailing archives, but all you have to do is the following:
my $SubjectDecode = decode_mimewords($Subject); $SubjectDecode then contains the ASCII text. Despite kind people on this mailing list explaining about the encoding, I still don't know exactly how it works. However, the decode works just fine for me ;) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dave Helton" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, February 21, 2004 9:15 PM Subject: [Mimedefang] anyone parsing ISO-8859-1?blah?blah in subject? _______________________________________________ Visit http://www.mimedefang.org and http://www.canit.ca MIMEDefang mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.roaringpenguin.com/mailman/listinfo/mimedefang
