+@vindex nnmail-mail-splitting-charset
+By default, splitting does not decode headers, so you can not match on
+non-@acronym{ASCII} strings.  But it is useful if you want to match
+articles based on the raw header data.  To enable it, set the
+@code{nnmail-mail-splitting-decodes} variable to a non-@code{nil} value.
+In addition, the value of the @code{nnmail-mail-splitting-charset}
+variable is used for decoding non-@acronym{MIME} encoded string when
+@code{nnmail-mail-splitting-decodes} is non-@code{nil}.  The default
+value is @code{nil} which means not to decode non-@acronym{MIME} encoded
+string.  A suitable value for you will be @code{undecided} or be the
+charset used normally in mails you are interested in.
