How to encode mail subject in perl ?

Now I finally found something but it's still not working :

use MIME::Words qw/encode_mimewords/;
$recipientsubject = encode_mimewords('Votre fichier a bien été envoyé');

But the (bugged) result is :

Subject: Votre fichier a bien =?ISO-8859-1?Q?=E9t=E9?= =?ISO-8859-1?Q?envoy=E9?=

Which displays :

Votre fichier a bien étéenvoyé

(It eats some spaces)

Use Encode, it is a core module.

perl -Mutf8 -MEncode -E 'say encode("MIME-Header", "Votre fichier a bien été envoyé")'

… will output either one of:

=?UTF-8?Q?Votre=20fichier=20a=20bien=20?= =?UTF-8?Q?=C3=A9t=C3=A9=20envoy=C3=A9?=
=?UTF-8?B?Vm90cmUgZmljaGllciBhIGJpZW4gw6l0w6kgZW52b3nDqQ==?=

And decode with:

perl -C -MEncode -E 'say decode("MIME-Header", "=?UTF-8?Q?Votre=20fichier=20a=20bien=20?= =?UTF-8?Q?=C3=A9t=C3=A9=20envoy=C3=A9?=")'
perl -C -MEncode -E 'say decode("MIME-Header", "=?UTF-8?B?Vm90cmUgZmljaGllciBhIGJpZW4gw6l0w6kgZW52b3nDqQ==?=")'

Which will print:

Votre fichier a bien été envoyé

If you still have the same results, you should give more information on your Perl environment. The version is a good starter.

Another module that handles MIME encoding of non-ASCII strings is Email::MIME::RFC2047. For example

use strict;
use warnings;
use utf8;

use Email::MIME::RFC2047::Encoder;
use Email::MIME::RFC2047::Decoder;

binmode(STDOUT, ':utf8');

my $encoder = Email::MIME::RFC2047::Encoder->new;
my $encoded = $encoder->encode_text('Votre fichier a bien été envoyé');
print "$encoded\n";

my $decoder = Email::MIME::RFC2047::Decoder->new;
my $decoded = $decoder->decode_text($encoded);
print "$decoded\n";

prints

Votre fichier a bien =?utf-8?Q?=c3=a9t=c3=a9_envoy=c3=a9?=
Votre fichier a bien été envoyé

Some benefits of Email::MIME::RFC2047 over Encode:

• It tries hard to use MIME encoding for as few words as possible, also by using quoted strings in phrases.
• It supports correct decoding of MIME phrases used in To, From, or Cc headers (impossible with Encode).
• It supports other character sets than UTF-8.
• It encodes space as underscore in MIME-Q encoded words.
• It has fewer bugs than Encode (none that I know of).
