[Arsperl-users] perl japanese email question

[Syed B. \(sbasith\) <sb...@ci...>]

Hi all,
=20
I have a perl program which accepts japanese characters in the subject
and body, i use sendmail to send mail using perl, the body seems to be
ok, but the subject comes as junk, is there any header encoding for the
subject to be done when i send an email? Below is the code which i use
for this. UNICAST reply to me

open(EMAIL,"|/usr/lib/sendmail -t -falliupg");
print EMAIL "From: $contact\@cisco.com>\n";
print EMAIL "Subject: ".$subject."\n";
print EMAIL "To: sbasith\@cisco.com\n";
print EMAIL "Content-Type: text/plain;
charset=3D\"iso-2022-jp\";encoding=3D\"B\"\n\n";
print EMAIL "$details\n\n";
print EMAIL $_;
close( EMAIL );

http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2047.html describes how to encode
non-US-ASCII characters in email headers.
