    You forgot Usenapp. Works great over here (I´m a former SOUP fan too).

    So that is why you produce garbage headers?

    That subject string might have said:

    except that it is missing the leading =? which if present makes it a valid encoded-word string.

    Jeez, I'm beginning to wish I'd never taken up MacCafe again ;-) How's

    Crikey! That's some learning curve for a newsreader (at least, any of
    the ones I've used in the last 20 years)!

    Lets see if this makes it through...

    Looks like it has :)

    Just fine, except for the [MacCafé],
    but that is Tim's fault.

    Character encodings are the worst.

    OTOH, such an encoding allows the use of any UNICODE character in a Subject: line or indeed any header.

    When first implementing my email client, I received from time to time emails with some header lines so encoded. Initially I just wondered what this shite was, however after a few such I started recognising the start and end trailers and after a bit of giggling, found this:

    <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIME#Encoded-Word>

    which made it all clear.
