So what's wrong with this header? It looks good to me.
I think it’s missing the double quotes around that.
Like this:
From: "=?utf-8?b?V2...2g/?=" <[email protected]>
? Such construct is explicitly forbidden by RFC 2047, §5:
| + An 'encoded-word' MUST NOT appear within a 'quoted-string'.
I guess that some software might try to decode the B-encoded part
first, and then try to extract addr-spec from it. But that is broken
behavior, according to my understanding of RFC 822 and RFC 2047.
Quoting §6.2 of the latter:
Well, be conservative in what you send, and all that.
I wouldn't call it conservative.
And Mailman isn’t exactly just “some software” either…
