You can use it as well for ASCII.

I'm not sure what you mean by "not sure how to implement this into my code" - instead of passing in the subject literally, you construct the encoded subject string and pass that one in. Where are you having problems exactly?

Sorry for being vague. This is what I tried, thought it would work this way but it didn't. Wasn't sure what charset to use either.

sub send_info {
    # Adjust sender, recipient and your SMTP mailhost
    use MIME::Base64;

    my $charset = 'x-mac-cyrillic';

    my $from_address = $from;
    my $to_address = $infoemail;

    # Adjust subject and body message
    my $message_body = "<h2>The following visitor requested informatio
+n.</h2><b>Name:</b> $string<br><b>E-mail:</b> $email<br>";
    my $subject = "$string is requesting information.";

    my $subject = "=?$charset?B?".encode_base64($subject)."?=";

    # Create the multipart container
    my $msg = MIME::Lite->new (
                               From    => $from_address,
                               To      => $to_address,
                               BCC     => $bcc,
                               Subject => $subject,
                               Type    =>'multipart/mixed'
                               ) or die "Error creating multipart cont
+ainer: $!\n";

    # Add the text message part
    $msg->attach (
                  Type => 'text/html',
                  Data => qq{ $message_body }
                  ) or die "Error adding the text message part: $!\n";

    # Now send
    $msg->send("sendmail") or die "Error e-mailing: $!\n";

On first glance, this looks OK, but then, you don't tell me what's wrong with it.

On what character set to use - I don't know. You need to know what character set your strings are in. That's the characterset you then use. Common charsets are UTF-8 , or maybe for cyrillic KOI-8.
