So his body itself has From: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@xxxxxxxxxx> - Also, even ignoring that, he actually uses utf-8 in the headers too, so his "From" header line looks like From: =?UTF-8?q?Rafa=C5=82=20Mi=C5=82ecki?= <zajec5@xxxxxxxxx> so it is already in UTF-8, it just is rfc2047-encoded. I suspect it's that first reason that patchwork.kernel.org gets it right, but it *migth* be the fact that the problematic email is using the old 'big5' encoding: From: =?big5?B?ufmxUrph?= <kt.liao@xxxxxxxxxx> anyway, it does look like a newer version of patchwork will fix this.
