Thanks, So it would not make sense if BBDB was using the encoded
headers. If it's guaranteed that headers returned by
gnus-fetch-field are already decoded, it is not even necessary that
bbdb-message-header calls mail-decode-encoded-word-string for these
headers.

But that's strange: by default, gnus-visible-headers includes the
organization header. Leo started this thread because
gnus-fetch-field did not return it. So what's happening here?
Leo, have you possibly customized the value of this variable?
