Vincent, I just saw that you had reported this to the courier-users mailing list a year ago already. I am sorry that haven't had much time (and momentum) to work on C::F.

This is indeed a problem with how C::F catches exceptions in MIME::Words:: Better::decode_mimewords(). I was using Error.pm wrong. The attached patch fixes the issue properly. Since I cannot say yet when the next C::F release is going to happen, I am also attaching the current trunk version of Courier::Message, which includes fixes for two other (rare) issues that have occurred in the past. Spam can be such a syntactic crap! Julian.
