Thanks for your bug report.

This bug is fixed upstream in 1.862. From the upstream Changes file:

1.862   2009-01-22
        [..]
        if a header can't be decoded, fall back to the raw header
        move decoding methods to Email::MIME::Header, add header_raw

The changes can also be seen here:
http://search.cpan.org/diff?from=Email-MIME-1.861&to=Email-MIME-1.862

(Please note that Email::MIME::header is now a separate file
Email::MIME::Header.)
 
Cheers,
gregor
