Hi, Thanks for directing me to good source. Anyway, I wrote a simple perl code. here' my code. 


#!/usr/bin/perl
use CGI ':standard';
use strict;
use warnings;
use CGI::Carp 'fatalsToBrowser'; # use only for testing
use Encode qw(encode decode);
no warnings 'utf8'; 

print "Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8\n\n";

my $subject = "Room Rush \303\242\302\200\302\223 Enjoy 25% off on you
+r stay. (raw: Room Rush =?utf-8?b?4oCT?= Enjoy 25% off on your stay.)
+";

$subject =~ s/[^[:ascii:]]+//g;  # get rid of non-ASCII characters

my $subject_decoded = decode("MIME-Header", $subject);
#my $subject_decoded = decode("MIME-B", $subject);
#my $subject_decoded = decode("MIME-Q", $subject);

print "\n";
print "<br/>";
print "subject: $subject \n\n";
print "<br/>";
print "subject_decoded: $subject_decoded \n\n";

here's what I get via web browser.

subject: Room Rush Enjoy 25% off on your stay. (raw: Room Rush =?utf-8?b?4oCT?= Enjoy 25% off on your stay.) subject_decoded: Room Rush Enjoy 25% off on your stay. (raw: Room Rush – Enjoy 25% off on your stay.)

But, the word " raw: " still appears?

Is this code good? How to enhance it? Anyway, I spent many hours to write the code since I still learn perl
