Hi Soji,

I just ran into exactly the same issue while migrating a mailing list 
that belongs to our Faculty of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies.

One specific message had:

Content-Type: text/plain;
        charset=iso-2022-jp-2

That was the only message using that charset out of 8109 in the archive, 
so fortunately not common. I was able to rebuild the archive after 
deleting this single message from the arctxt directory for the list.

We are using RHEL 7, which ships with:

perl-MIME-Charset-1.011.1-1.el7.noarch

Is any workaround possible, or do I have to install my own module
from https://metacpan.org/pod/MIME::Charset? It looks like the upstream 
code (that you maintain!) has reached version 1.012.2 since March.

Thanks,
