Hi,

this is not entirely a Courier matter, but more a general MIME question.

The thing is, I use lurker to archive mails for a couriermlm list but 
when people post with these headers

 Mime-Version: 1.0
 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1
 Content-Disposition: inline
 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

it "breaks" the subject line (thus, breaking threading in lurker) when a 
subject line contains non-ASCII (e.g. Danish chars. æøåÆØÅ).

See phenomenon on <http://sentinel.dk/lurker/list/dansk-gruppen.da.html> 
where a white space appears in the middle of a word in subject lines 
with æøåÆØÅ (only where mail is 8bit).

Is this because people use 8bit (unencoded?) when they should in fact 
use Quoted-Printable instead?

Thanks in advance,
--
