The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[Mohammed Sameer Shaikh <address@concealed>]

Hey,

* I am running sympa 5.4.3

* When someone sends a mail to my sympa listserv with a Subject line  as below, sympa.pl crashes

<s>
Subject: =?gb18030?B?Rnc6IM7SysdyY8DPtPrA7bLOvNM51MK02c/608W73cLrJ25hbTM5ODQn?=
</s>


* The error that I get is

<s>
Can't call method "encode" on an undefined value at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/MIME/Charset.pm line 629.
</s>

* I tried to patch my sympa install with the patch here

https://sourcesup.cru.fr/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=6385&group_id=23&atid=167


* Still my sympa keeps crashing.

* I have notices one common thread in all of these mails, ie all of them come from blackberry users, and possibly have Chinese characters in them.

* Is there a way to get around this ?

Regards,
Muhammed Sameer
