Unneeded Puny-Code encoding of UTF-8 for Sender-Name #99

I've added some YouTube channels with unicode chars in the display name.

Example: DÆrik

Additionally I've edited the options to only get 8-bit UTF-8 mails.

The result is, instead of using "DÆrik" as sender name, the mail is generated with some kind of puny code style, while no client does recognize this and showing it plain:

=?utf-8?b?RMOGcmlrOiBEw4ZyaWs=?=

So, I guess that's a bug and should be fixed, but maybe I'm holding it wrong? ;)

Hello,

This repository has been deprecated for a few years now, and has been replaced by https://github.com/rss2email/rss2email .

If this issue is still relevant to you, and not fixed with v3.12.2, could you please reopen the issue there?

Cheers, Leo
