You can get some very nasty things in spam that really should never be
foisted upon a poor unsuspecting text editor.
I stopped seeing this sort of crash in Gnus about 10 years ago when I
added the following rule to my ~/.procmailrc...
Thanks, but I have legitimate Chinese correspondents, not all known to
me in advance, so I really can't do that . . .
However, I'm already pre-processing some header lines -- is it obvious
what the bogosity was in that string? I.e. can I filter this sort of
thing out before it crashes things? I'm not a coding-system
wizard. . .
