howto decode mime-encoded header/body

Hello,

I'm new to mailutils and I want to use it.
I have a mail like :

    From bornet  Fri Oct  4 17:55:33 2002
    From: Olivier Bornet some accents =?iso-8859-1?B?4Ono?= <address@hidden>
    To: Olivier Bornet <address@hidden>
    Subject: test with accents =?iso-8859-1?B?KOng6Ck=?=
    Mime-Version: 1.0
    Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1
    Content-Disposition: inline
    Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

    Hello,

    some accents : =E9=E8=E7.

Reading it with for example mutt give the correct lines for the From:,
the Subject: and the body. Here they are :

    From: Olivier Bornet some accents àéè <address@hidden>
    Subject: test with accents (éàè)

    some accents : éèç.

With mailutils, I have try with both readmsg and mimetest. Both don't
decode the accentuated chars :

    From: Olivier Bornet some accents =?iso-8859-1?B?4Ono?= <address@hidden>
    Subject: test with accents =?iso-8859-1?B?KOng6Ck=?=

    some accents : =E9=E8=E7.

Is this normal and I must use an external decoder ? Or is this a
"feature" of mailutils ? ;-)

Thanks in advance.

                Olivier
