mb_detect_order
I could not find a PHP function to MIME encode the name for a n email address.
Input = "Karl Müller<kmueller@gmx.de>"
Output = "Karl%20M%FCller<kmueller@gmx.de>"
I wrote it on my own:
<?php
// required to encode names in email addresses
// replace " " with "%20"
// replace "ü" with "%FC"
// replace "%" with "%25" etc....
// Use "%" as Delimiter for MIME
// Use "=" as Delimiter for Quoted Printable
// Input string must be UTF8 encoded
public static function EncodeMime($Text, $Delimiter)
{
$Text = utf8_decode($Text);
$Len = strlen($Text);
$Out = "";
for ($i=0; $i<$Len; $i++)
{
$Chr = substr($Text, $i, 1);
$Asc = ord($Chr);
if ($Asc > 0x255) // Unicode not allowed
{
$Out .= "?";
}
else if ($Chr == " " || $Chr == $Delimiter || $Asc > 127)
{
$Out .= $Delimiter . strtoupper(bin2hex($Chr));
}
else $Out .= $Chr;
}
return $Out;
}
?>

mb_encode_mimeheader — Codifica un string para la cabecera MIME
Descripción
string mb_encode_mimeheader
( string
$str
[, string $charset
[, string $transfer_encoding
[, string $linefeed = "\r\n"
[, int $indent = 0
]]]] )
Codifica el string
str dado mediante el esquema de codificación de cabecera MIME.
Parámetros
-
str -
El string que va a ser codificado.
-
charset -
charsetespecifica el nombre del conjunto de caracteres en el cual está representadostr. El valor predeterminado está determinado por el ajuste NLS en uso (mbstring.language). mb_internal_encoding() deberÃa establecerse a la misma codifiación. -
transfer_encoding -
transfer_encodingespecifica el esquema de la codifición MIME. DeberÃa ser "B" (Base64) o "Q" (Quoted-Printable). Si no ser proporciona será "B". -
linefeed -
linefeedespecifica la marca EOL (fin de lÃnea) con la que mb_encode_mimeheader() realiza el pliegue de lÃnea (un término de » RFC, que es el acto de dividir una lÃnea mayor que una cierta longitud en varias lÃneas. La longitud actualmente es de 74 caracteres). Si no se proporciona será "\r\n" (CRLF). -
indent -
La indentación de la primera lÃnea (número de caracteres en la cabecera antes de
str).
Valores devueltos
Una versión convertida del string representado en ASCII.

Ejemplos
Ejemplo #1 Ejemplo de mb_encode_mimeheader()
<?php
$name = ""; // kanji
$mbox = "kru";
$doma = "gtinn.mon";
$addr = mb_encode_mimeheader($name, "UTF-7", "Q") . " <" . $mbox . "@" . $doma . ">";
echo $addr;
?>
Notas
Nota:
Esta función no está diseñada para dividir lÃneas en puntos de rotura contextual de alto nivel (lÃmites de palabras, etc.). Este comportamiento podrÃa abarrotar el string original con espacios inesperados.

mb_encode_mimeheader() depends on correct mbstring.internal_encoding setting. It tries to convert $str from internal encoding to $charset. If you ignore mbstring internal encoding, function might encode strings incorrectly even when $str character set matches $charset

I found a bad function.
<?php
function encodeHeader($input, $charset = 'ISO-8859-2')
{
preg_match_all('/(\\w*[\\x80-\\xFF]+\\w*)/', $input, $matches);
foreach ($matches[1] as $value) {
$replacement = preg_replace('/([\\x80-\\xFF])/e', '"=" . strtoupper(dechex(ord("\\1")))', $value);
$input = str_replace($value, '=?' . $charset . '?Q?' . $replacement . '?=', $input);
}
return $input;
}
?>
This function should be used:
<?php
function encodeHeader($input, $charset = 'ISO-8859-2')
{
$m=preg_match_all('/(\w*[\x80-\xFF]+\w*)/', $input, $matches);
if($m)$input=mb_encode_mimeheader($input,$charset, 'Q');
return $input;
}
?>

Some solution for using national chars and have problem with UTF-8 for example in mail subject. Before you use mb_encode_mimeheader with UTF-8 set mb_internal_encoding('UTF-8').

If mb_ version doesn't work for you in MIME-B mode:
function encode_mimeheader($string, $charset=null, $linefeed="\r\n") {
if (!$charset)
$charset = mb_internal_encoding();
$start = "=?$charset?B?";
$end = "?=";
$encoded = '';
/* Each line must have length <= 75, including $start and $end */
$length = 75 - strlen($start) - strlen($end);
/* Average multi-byte ratio */
$ratio = mb_strlen($string, $charset) / strlen($string);
/* Base64 has a 4:3 ratio */
$magic = $avglength = floor(3 * $length * $ratio / 4);
for ($i=0; $i <= mb_strlen($string, $charset); $i+=$magic) {
$magic = $avglength;
$offset = 0;
/* Recalculate magic for each line to be 100% sure */
do {
$magic -= $offset;
$chunk = mb_substr($string, $i, $magic, $charset);
$chunk = base64_encode($chunk);
$offset++;
} while (strlen($chunk) > $length);
if ($chunk)
$encoded .= ' '.$start.$chunk.$end.$linefeed;
}
/* Chomp the first space and the last linefeed */
$encoded = substr($encoded, 1, -strlen($linefeed));
return $encoded;
}

True, function is broken (PHP5.1, encoding from UTF-8 with pl_PL charset). Below is about 15% faster version of proposed _mb_mime_encode. Also it has header more like othe mb_* functions and doesn't trigger any errors/warnings/notices.
<?php
function mb_mime_header($string, $encoding=null, $linefeed="\r\n") {
if(!$encoding) $encoding = mb_internal_encoding();
$encoded = '';
while($length = mb_strlen($string)) {
$encoded .= "=?$encoding?B?"
. base64_encode(mb_substr($string,0,24,$encoding))
. "?=$linefeed";
$string = mb_substr($string,24,$length,$encoding);
}
return $encoded;
}
?>

My first post was around 2003, and still the mb_mime_header is broken. It is *NOT* usable with longer subjects, and mostly unusable with anything else than japanese.
iwakura at junx dot org is also not working for me, it produces also some gargabe.
I updated my old function (the one I posted 2003) and I tested it with overlong subjects in UTF-8, ISO-2022-JP (japanese), GB2312 (simplified chinese) and EUC-KR (korean) and I got readable results in thunderbird, mail.app, outlook, etc.
<?php
function _mb_mime_encode($string, $encoding)
{
$pos = 0;
// after 36 single bytes characters if then comes MB, it is broken
// but I trimmed it down to 24, to stay 100% < 76 chars per line
$split = 24;
while ($pos < mb_strlen($string, $encoding))
{
$output = mb_strimwidth($string, $pos, $split, "", $encoding);
$pos += mb_strlen($output, $encoding);
$_string_encoded = "=?".$encoding."?B?".base64_encode($output)."?=";
if ($_string)
$_string .= "\r\n";
$_string .= $_string_encoded;
}
$string = $_string;
return $string;
}
?>

In countries where there's non-us ASCII, it's a very good example, for sending mail:
mb_internal_encoding('iso-8859-2');
setlocale(LC_CTYPE, 'hu_HU');
function encode($str,$charset){
$str=mb_encode_mimeheader(trim($str),$charset, 'Q', "\n\t");
return $str;
}
print encode('the text with spec. chars: ő Ű Ő ű, á','iso-8859-2');
It creates a 7bit string

i think mb_encode_mimeheader still have bug. here is sample code:
function mb_encode_mimeheader2($string, $encoding = "ISO-2022-JP") {
$string_array = array();
$pos = 0;
$row = 0;
$mode = 0;
while ($pos < mb_strlen($string)) {
$word = mb_strimwidth($string, $pos, 1);
if (!$word) {
$word = mb_strimwidth($string, $pos, 2);
}
if (mb_ereg_match("[ -~]", $word)) { // ascii
if ($mode != 1) {
$row++;
$mode = 1;
$string_array[$row] = NULL;
}
} else { // multibyte
if ($mode != 2) {
$row++;
$mode = 2;
$string_array[$row] = NULL;
}
}
$string_array[$row] .= $word;
$pos++;
}
//echo "<pre>";
//print_r($string_array);
//echo "</pre>";
foreach ($string_array as $key => $value) {
$value = mb_convert_encoding($value, $encoding);
$string_array[$key] = mb_encode_mimeheader($value, $encoding);
}
//echo "<pre>";
//print_r($string_array);
//echo "</pre>";
return implode("", $string_array);
}
is not the best, but it works

At least for Q encoding, this function is unsafe and does not encode correctly. Raw characters which appear as RFC2047 sequences are simply left as is.
Ex:
mb_encode_mimeheader( '=?iso-8859-1?q?this=20is=20some=20text?=' );
returns '=?iso-8859-1?q?this=20is=20some=20text?='
The exact same string, which is obviously not the encoding for the source string. That is, mb_encode_mimeheader does not do any type of escaping.
That is, the following condition is not always true:
mb_decode_mimeheader( mb_encode_mimeheader( $text ) ) == $text

Read this FIRST: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=23192 because mb_encode_mimeheaders is BUGGY!
a work around for the multibyte broken error for too long subjects for ISO-2022-JP:
$pos=0;
$split=36; // after 36 single bytes characters, if then comes MB, it is broken
while ($pos<mb_strlen($string,$encoding))
{
$output=mb_strimwidth($string,$pos,$split,"",$encoding);
$pos+=mb_strlen($output,$encoding);
$_string.=(($_string)?' ':'').mb_encode_mimeheader($output,$encoding);
}
$string=$_string;
is not the best, but it works
