hello,
when i work on a pop mail client program, i met the following string at
the Subject field:
i know they are encoded chinese words. but anybody can advise on how to
decode them?
regards and thanks,
Richard
Subject: =?GBK?B?dnNvYy5jbiDXorLhs8m5piE==?=
Subject: =?GB2312?B?RndkOiCyu7rD0uLLvKOsvfHM7LLF1qq1wMTjtcTTys/k?=

Doing some quick googling shows that the quoted-printable format for
headers is
=?Charset?encoding?encoded text?=
So these are in the GBK and GB2312 charsets respectively, both encoded
in Base64. You could use a regexp to pull the three fields out and then
use the standard Base64.decode64 to recover the encoded characters from
the last chunk.

They are RFC 2047 encoded words. I wrote a small lib to decode them,
this might be the latest version:
http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-talk/101949
Email me off line if not, and I'll send it to you.
Something like it really, REALLY should be part of one of the ruby
mail libraries... even Net::IMAP if necessary.
Cheers,
Sam
I believe TMail supports this.
