Yes, qprint should do it:

# echo "Ker=C4=B1ko" | qprint -d 
Kerıko

You just need to deal yourself with the "=?utf-8?Q?" and "?=".

You can look for alternative programs that understand the RFC 1521
MIME Quoted-Printable standard.

Some e-mails will have the name encoded in base64. This will look
maybe like this:

 To: Jeri =?utf-8?B?S2VyxLFrbwo=?= <...>

You decode those by base64:

# echo "S2VyxLFrbwo=" | base64 -d
Kerıko

Again, you need to take care yourself of the "=?utf-8?B?" and "?=".


Good luck.
