If it’s “not encoding” the subject line, then it’s sending it as UTF-16 with
embedded null bytes, the internal encoding of Microsoft’s software. Which
cannot work, given the world’s Usenet software as it exists today. Your
other message mentioned GB2312--if you can confirm that this is the encoding
being used, I can realistically help you, if not, I can’t.

Russian has no phoneme that corresponds directly to Germanic /h/. As a
result, for a not-insignificant number of people, the Second World War
involved the Soviet Union defeating Адольф Гитлер, “Adolf Gitler.”
