I'm setting up a webmail system, with qmail/courier IMAP at the backend.
One of my users today setup mail so his from: lines had more detail. It
should look like:
From: User O'Surname <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Instead, it's;
From: =?ISO-8859-1?Q?User=D3_Sur?=
name <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
What can cause header's to be wierdly encoded like that ? It's only
cosmetic; mails still get around, but some mail clients break up the name
completely (so it would be from [EMAIL PROTECTED], and to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
plus a load of parts of the "full name", with "@domain.com" added to it.
