And ignore it when using the indexes. Yes, but where's the patch to do
that?
I'll have a guess that something like this already happens. My guess is
that the charset mapping tables ignore 8-bit data in a MIME header that
should be encoded QP or BASE64 data. I have no proof of this, maybe Ken
can comment? (I don't have time to look through the code at this point...)
After a brief look, I believe you are correct in that 8-bit chars are
ignored in the header.
Rob, Bron, do you have a sample message with 8-bit chars in the
header(s) that I could do some testing on? I suppose I could
manufacture something, but I'd prefer to use something that came from
"the wild".
