Correct. maildrop is now MIME-aware. The search patterns should simply be  
specified in UTF-8 (noted in the maildropfilter man page), and MIME-encoded  
content will be properly decoded, transcoded to UTF-8, and compared. Mixed  
encoding should be fine, they'll be transcoded to UTF-8, as long as it's an  
encoding that's known to iconv. However, it does mean that messages must be  
properly MIME-encoded.

Looks like from the log files shows that the sample message appears to have  
raw ISO-8859-1 content in the headers, which is invalid.

Also, looks like there's a tiny logging bug, that needs to be squished,  
which garbles logged patterns. That's just a formatting bug, unrelated to  
searching.
