Description Christian Lohmaier 2002-08-23 15:34:14 UTC 
When showing all headers, pan 0.13.0 doesn't show the raw headers (like I
expect and want it to do), but the decoded headers instead. (which makes it
a waste of time having a look at it)
Examples: 
instead of:
From: Georg =?ISO-8859-15?Q?Sandk=FChler?= <xx@xxxxxx.xx>
pan displays
From: Georg Sandkühler <xx@xxxxxx.xx>

instead of
Subject: Account =?ISO-8859-1?Q?z=E4hlt_gel=F6schte?= E-Mails mit
pan displays
Subject: Account zählt gelöschte E-Mails mit

I don't know any other program that behaves like this.

Fejj, is there any way to tell GMime to not decode headers?

I'm not convinced about the usefulness of showning
the undecoded headers, but if GMime has/will have
a way to bypass decoding, I don't mind using it for
this case.
Comment 2 Jeffrey Stedfast 2002-09-12 05:17:00 UTC 
g_mime_object_get_header (GMIME_OBJECT (message), "Subject");

that will get the raw (pre-decoded) Subject: header
same goes for any other header.

g_mime_object_get_headers() or whatever it's called (the one that gets
the entire header block) will also return the raw header block
(pre-decoded)
