@vindex rfc2047-encoded-word-regexp
When decoding words, this library looks for matches to this regexp.
+@item rfc2047-encoded-word-regexp-loose
+@vindex rfc2047-encoded-word-regexp-loose
+This is a version from which the regexp for the Q encoding pattern of
+@code{rfc2047-encoded-word-regexp} is made loose.

@item rfc2047-encode-encoded-words
@vindex rfc2047-encode-encoded-words
The boolean variable specifies whether encoded words
-(e.g. @samp{=?hello?=}) should be encoded again.
+(e.g. @samp{=?us-ascii?q?hello?=}) should be encoded again.
+@code{rfc2047-encoded-word-regexp} is used to look for such words.

+The boolean variable specifies whether irregular Q encoded words
+(e.g. @samp{=?us-ascii?q?hello??=}) should be decoded. If it is
+non-@code{nil}, @code{rfc2047-encoded-word-regexp-loose} is used instead

@item rfc2047-encode-parameter
@findex rfc2047-encode-parameter
-Encode a parameter in the RFC2047-like style. This is a replacement for
-the @code{rfc2231-encode-string} function. @xref{rfc2231}.
-
-When attaching files as @acronym{MIME} parts, we should use the RFC2231
-encoding to specify the file names containing non-@acronym{ASCII}
-characters. However, many mail softwares don't support it in practice
-and recipients won't be able to extract files with correct names.
-Instead, the RFC2047-like encoding is acceptable generally. This
-function provides the very RFC2047-like encoding, resigning to such a
-regrettable trend. To use it, put the following line in your
-@file{~/.gnus.el} file:
-
-@lisp
-(defalias 'mail-header-encode-parameter 'rfc2047-encode-parameter)
-@end lisp
+Encode a parameter in the RFC2047-like style. This is a substitution
+for the @code{rfc2231-encode-string} function, that is the standard but
+many mailers don't support it. @xref{rfc2231}.
