Ruby unicode mail receiving

How do i see unicode text within retrieved messages?

$require 'net/pop'
mail_server = Net::POP3.new('mail.yahoo.ru')
mail_server.start('login','pass')
mail_server.mails.each do |m|
   puts m.pop if /Superjob/.match(m.header)
end

Shows me "??????.." instead of cyrillic letters.

You might want to use the mail gem, it supports multipart messages, automatic charset conversion for all fields etc.

I'm not completely familiar with net/pop but you probably want to use Iconv to convert it to utf-8 with something like this:

require 'net/pop'
require 'iconv'

mail_server = Net::POP3.new('mail.yahoo.ru')
mail_server.start('login','pass')
mail_server.mails.each do |m|
 m = Iconv.conv('UTF8', 'CP1251', m)
 #or m.header = Iconv.conv('UTF8', 'CP1251', m.header) ??
 puts m.pop if /Superjob/.match(m.header)
end
