unfold Subject line that is wrapped

I have an email message that wraps the Subject line, and I want to put it
back together again.

The Subject line has a newline, tab, letter "m", newline at the end.

I want to squeeze that all back together, with no spaces so it becomes a
valid email address.

I understand that Procmail unfolds the headers when doing matching.
However it seems to leave a space for the initial newline.

I have tried the following recipes without success.




:0 h
* ^Subject: [   ]
* ^Subject: \/.+
{
    SUBJECTLINE = `echo $MATCH | tr --delete '\n\t'`

    :0fh
    | formail -I"Subject: $SUBJECTLINE"
}

which gives the following result

procmail: Assigning "MATCH="
procmail: Matched "X-command: maintainer passwd subscribe
elxtina(_at_)xxitqfrazatronixx(_dot_)co         m"
procmail: Match on "^Subject: \/.+"
procmail: Executing "echo $MATCH | tr --delete '\n\t'"
procmail: Assigning "SUBJECTLINE=X-command: maintainer passwd subscribe
elxtina(_at_)xxitqfrazatronixx(_dot_)co m"
procmail: Executing "formail,-ISubject: X-command: maintainer passwd
subscribe elxtina(_at_)xxitqfrazatronixx(_dot_)co m"


which leaves a space in the dot com ending.


or


:0 fhw
* ^Subject:
* $[    ]
| sed -e '/^Subject:/{
N
s/\n[   ]+//
}
'



This should not be so difficult.  Is there a standard and well known recipe
to accomplish this.

Thanks for any insight.
