That's exactly what it is supposed to look like - MIME encoded with no 8-bit characters in the Subject. Something else downstream of IMP must be decoding the subject.

From: "Jens A. Tkotz" <jens@peino.de> To: jens@peino.de Subject: test =?iso-8859-1?b?xNbc?= test User-Agent: Internet Messaging Program (IMP) H4 (5.0-git) Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="=_8cg4kw8wcksg" How can i look really at the header? In IMP (or TB) it looks okay. View message source.

The Line with the bad header notice is a header added by amavis. This header is irrelevant. The header that matters is the Subject: header on the outgoing message (in the sent-mail folder). How can i look really at the header? In IMP (or TB) it looks okay.

Did you also have an attachment? Yes, both with and without an attachment (it was even a .png attachment). Can you verify that the subject is unencoded in the sent-mail copy of the message? How can i verify that? The Line with the bad header notice is a header added by amavis.

I can't reproduce this. That subject is correctly MIME encoded for me: Subject: t =?utf-8?b?w6TDtsO8?= t Did you also have an attachment?

Using horde(head), imp(git). When i send a message with an attachment (png picture) and german umlauts in the subject i get this message in amavisd: BAD HEADER SECTION, Non-encoded 8-bit data (char E4 hex): Subject: t \344\366\374\344 t Subject is: "t äöü t" Regards, Jens
