Hello everyone!
I have a problem, that some users cant subscribe to the mailinglist, because
the freemail-provider of these users(it's a german freemailer GMX), "breaks"
the Subject line - look at this mess! :

--------------------------
The subject line is "Subject: =?ISO-8859-1?Q?subscribe?=" instead of
the "Subject: subscribe".
It seems to be the problem only of this provider.
What can be done in such case?
Other software(Mozilla Mail /Thunderbird) do not worry about this "=?ISO-8859-1?Q? ... ?="-line
and displays the Subject-Line correctly.
Ist it a kinda new RFC-Standard for the Subject-lines - to put the encodings information in it?
Or are the programmers of this freemailer simply stupid?
Greetings
Vladimir-
