The MIME standard gives users the ability to represent any characters in any character set by using special sequences like: . =?ISO-8859-1?Q?Keld_J=F8rn_Simonsen?= . There are various modules available to manipulate these special character sequences. This module bears most resemblance to the MIME::Words module and provides a similar interface, providing for relatively painless upgrading, while having stricter conformance to the aforementioned RFCs. It provides more flexibility than MIME::WordDecoder because characters can be mapped into any desired encoding, rather than simply the local system representation.
