It is not confusing but caused by some news clients turning some message
header lines into some strange encoding when the find non-ASCII characters in
the header line (usually Subject or From header lines) *.  Unfortunately I
don't know the name of this encoding and so I never managed to find out
something about it.  Hints are welcome, of course.
