Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug.

json_encode will only encode UTF8 - you need to convert the string to
unicode before outputing.

Description:
------------
Let's say, the script should get the letter and return decoded 
subject in JSON. If, for example, subject to be encoded in koi8-r, 
then json_encode of decoded string will return null, because in 
the decoded string contains illegal utf-8 codes.

Here is an example: =?koi8-r?B?4dPUxdLPycTZ?=


Test script:
---------------
<?php
require_once dirname(__FILE__) . '/mimeDecode.php';
$params['decode_headers'] = true;
$decoder = new Mail_mimeDecode('Subject: =?koi8-r?B?4dPUxdLPycTZ?=');
$struct = $decoder->decode($params);
print json_encode($struct->headers['subject']);


Expected result:
----------------
"\u0410\u0441\u0442\u0435\u0440\u043e\u0438\u0434\u044b"

Actual result:
--------------
null
