Yes, use the $Subject variable that Mimedefang gives you!

That is the actual subject-- it ends with a linefeed character, #012.
Use chomp() to remove it.

[Mimedefang] base64 to quoted-printable
I need to convert base64 to something readable. Per previous suggestions on this list, I'm going to convert it to quoted-printable. So far, I'm using: if ($bh = $entity->bodyhandle) ; $qp_body = encode_qp($bh->as_string) } It seems to work (I use md_syslog() to show the first 20 chars). Is that right? Or is there a better way? Then, I see an action_change_header(), but no action_change_body(). So, presume I need to build a new entity by copying headers from the old entity, replacing the Content-Transfer-Encoding header, and replacing the body. Then use replace_entire_message(). Does that sound about right? Also, I've got to believe someone else has needed to do this before. But I'm finding it tough to locate examples. I'm looking at docs for mime::tools, mime::body, etc. but I'm hoping to locate examples of the entire process. Any pointers?

To be honest I can't think of a reason to do this. Any client from this century can read base64. Mimedefang and Spamassassin can read it too, so searching content just works.

And QP is not necessarily any more readable than B64, depending on the source language. Is =D7=A2=D7=91=D7=A8=D7=99=D7=AA=E2=80=8E any more readable than 16LXkdeo15nXquKAjg== ? :) Regards, Dianne. ___ NOTE: If there is a disclaimer or other legal boilerplate in the above message, it is NULL AND VOID.

Nevertheless, I need to for an old client. So, back to my question: if ($bh = $entity->bodyhandle) ; $qp_body = encode_qp($bh->as_string) } It seems to work (I use md_syslog() to show the first 20 chars). Is that right?
