The script uses the "variables" extension to produce the "Re: [original subject] (autoreply)" subject line for the vacation message.

All is well except for cases when that [original subject] is written in Russian.

This is a TODO item:

- Vacation: the ":subject" parameter specifies a subject line to attach to 
  any vacation response that is generated. UTF-8 characters can be used in
  the string argument; implementations MUST convert the string to [RFC2047]
  encoded words if and only if non-ASCII characters are present.

I think the main reason this hasn't been implemented yet is that this conversion isn't required anywhere else in Dovecot. So the first step would be to create RFC 2047 encoder for Dovecot. Feel free to implement one. :)
