| Subject: | Incorrect use of MIME-Q encoding on (some) headers |
RFC2047 states that MIME-Q encoding MUST NOT appear in any portion of an 'addr-spec'.
However all headers passed via the header_str attribute in the call to Email::MIME->create( ) get
MIME-Q encoded [1]. This causes long addresses to have spaces inserted within them (before
any folding takes place).
A simple (failing) test case is attached to highlight this.
Cheers,
Russell.
[1] I'm using Email::MIME::Kit to do the heave lifting of the email generation, which passes
headers via the header_str attribute..
