[ regarding decoding of encoded ASCII in headers]

Ok, I'll add support for it to mhfixmsg -decodeheaderfieldbodies utf8.

Thank you!


When I look at the message in the lists.nongnu.org archive [1], the
line isn't too long.  But it's not folded, either.  The continuation
is on separate line with no leading whitespace.

Something got lost in translation.

In the original message (as saved by procmail before being munged in any
way), it was one long line, with exactly one space between the end of the
first encoded portion and the beginning of the second one.

The relevant excerpt (with parts elided to keep the whole short enough here
for purposes of illustration) is

   Subject: =?US-ASCII?Q?Using_[...]_to_mak?= =?US-ASCII?Q?e_text_[...]?=
