 * I use **cForms II** for sending form submissions, and I think it is excellent.
   However, since February 12 the **subject line** arrives like this:
   =?UTF-8?Q?
   =C5=B0rlap_kit=C3=B6lt=C3=A9s:_K=C3=A1lnai_Ott=C3=B3?=
 * Previously it arrived normally, like this:
   Űrlap kitöltés: Kocsi GáborFrom Hungary,
   ofcourse 🙂
 * What happend and how can I get back ÁŰÓÉ 🙂
 * Thank you for advance!

 * What you see is the correct RFC 2047 syntax with UTF-8 charset and “quoted printable”
   representation for “Űrlap kitöltés: Kálnai Ottó”. So either your email client
   has changed or something changed that the subject line is encoded twice. You 
   should send a message containing the complete Subject: header when you look at
   the email source.
 * You should also give some more info on your system: Which PHP, WordPress, cforms2
   versions are you running? Did you run an update just before Feb 12? How are your
   WordPress emails delivered (additional plugin or the system’s sendmail executable)?
