in reply to asian characters in email subject line

Read RFC 2047.

I don't know any asian languages, so I can't test, but appears that you can do this:

Subject: =character-set?q?quoted=20printable=20text?=
Subject: =character-set?b?base64encodedtext?=
where character-set is the character set you want to use, q or b indicate whether what encoding you want to use, followed by the encoded text, either in quoted-printable or base64.

There are examples near the bottom of the RFC, but unfortunately none are for Asian languages.

Good luck!
