I think it is very reasonable to assume that a Subject cannot
contain any line breaks, and thus that any line breaks in
Subject are removed, and that there should be not more than
a single space where the line break occurred.
Why would you assume that? Surely the content of the Subject is up to the
author?
Subject: Discussions concerning foo, bar and baz.
Part I. Foo.
If some "smart" receiving agent reformats that, it might appear as
Subject: Discussions concerning foo, bar and baz. Part
I. Foo.
For sure, the transport system should not change any folding. If the
recipient is foolish enough to buy such an "oversmart" agent, then that is
his misfortune.
