I am getting unknown encoding like, "=?Utf-8?B?QWRyaWFu?=
<adr...@discussions.microsoft.com>" (quotes for clarity) for name of
the author from nntplib module. which seems like an encoding issue
with NNTPLib module.
What should i do to get author name information in human readable
format.
The original text was encoded in UTF-8 and then into base-64:
=?Utf-8?B?QWRyaWFu?=
^^^^^ UTF-8
=?Utf-8?B?QWRyaWFu?=
^ Base-64
So that's:
>>> "QWRyaWFu".decode("base-64").decode("Utf-8")
