>>> decode_header('=?iso-8859-1?B?QW5tZWxkdW5nIE5ldHphbnNjaGx1c3MgU_xkcmluZzNwLmpwZw==?=')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/iritkatriel/src/cpython-1/Lib/email/header.py", line 126, in decode_header
    word = email.base64mime.decode(encoded_string)
           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  File "/Users/iritkatriel/src/cpython-1/Lib/email/base64mime.py", line 112, in decode
    return a2b_base64(string.encode('raw-unicode-escape'))
           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
binascii.Error: Invalid base64-encoded string: number of data characters (49) cannot be 1 more than a multiple of 4

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:
