No, gnus is correct, outlook is violating MIME specs. However, it doesn't seem to be alone in this behaviour, so perhaps we should try to support QP encoded parameter values anyway. (The "proper" solution would be to make every other client support rfc 2231.) MIME spec says: + An 'encoded-word' MUST NOT be used in parameter of a MIME Content-Type or Content-Disposition field, or in any structured field body except within a 'comment' or 'phrase'.
