I believe that format is RFC 2047 Mime Header Encoding, try the
Encode::MIME::Header module to decode it

Subject: Problem processing UTF-8 strings from email
Hi all,
I am somewhat experienced with Perl in general, but absolutely no
experience dealing with UTF-8. I have a community journals website which
allows updates from users via email. I'm having trouble with emails that
contain Chinese characters encoded (I think) as UTF-8. The strings look
like this:
=?UTF-8?B?5qGQ5LmhLCBUb25neGlhbmc6IEJlaW5nIGEgJ2hhbg==?=
=?UTF-8?B?dHUn?=
