[wp-hackers] 8bit ASCII characters in mail-headers

Yeah the whole thing needs a bit of an overrun.  IMAP is useful, but I
think what is more useful right now is a php parser that directly
takes SMTP emails in so you don't have to have cronjobs with POP or
IMAP.
That's the -real- solution, more effort to setup for the end-user (if
indeed they can at all) but it's rewarding.

I don't have a MMS phone (well I do Nokia 6600 but have MMS disabled
on my network provider, should call them up and ask about it) though I
think my hack already supports most MMS stuff.
As far as I know MMS is just standard mime which my hack supports.

A lot of people that use my hack send photo's and what-not from their
phones, give it a try and it should work.
