Quoted-Printable header coding correct?
Hi! I've just received a message with these headers: Subject: Re: =?iso-8859-1?Q?=DCberpr=FCfun?= =?iso-8859-1?Q?g?= von E-Mail Adressen? User-Agent: Mutt/1.3.28i Is this the best way to encode the word Überprüfung at this position? What makes me wonder, is why the g has been put on the next line and why it was encoded at all? I'm not too sure on the RfC part, but I would have expected something like: Subject: Re: =?iso-8859-1?Q?=DCberpr=FCfung?= von E-Mail Adressen? Would this be wrong? Hmm, and why was the g encoded with iso-8859-1? Wouldn't us-ascii be more conservative (and also 2 bytes shorter (that's no question *G*))?

No. Better is Test. ;-) What makes me wonder, is why the g has been put on the next line and why it was encoded at all? i suppose the mail user agent decided to split the rest onto the next line. I'm not too sure on the RfC part, but I would have expected something like: Subject: Re: =?iso-8859-1?Q?=DCberpr=FCfung?= von E-Mail Adressen? tell the programmers of that mail client then! Hmm, and why was the g encoded with iso-8859-1? Because RFC0815 defines it as an Ueber-Umlaut. ;-) Sven [whio never uses umlauts in headers, anyway]

Well, but why did mutt do this? Even with the g, the line would have been shorter than 75 characters, and thus would still comply to RfC. Or does the RfC require the next line to start with a QP header? tell the programmers of that mail client then! Uhm, that's the *mutt*-users list, isn't it? ;) In case you simply overlooked, the User-Agent was Mutt/1.3.28i. Or are you saying I should post this to mutt-dev?
