Does somebody know what's going on?
It means the Subject had 8-bit characters, not encoded. The sender's
email program should be encoding them. The header portion of mail
is required to be 7-bit only.
There are available patches that can "fix" the behavior:
<quote src="/etc/imapd.conf on debian">
# Munging illegal characters in headers
# Headers of RFC2882 messages must not have characters with the 8th bit

munge8bit: no
</quote>
I have found this option and works fine now.
This problem appears when I send a form from my webpage with php. I have
set Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit but with no luck.
Any help?
Thank you all
