Here's an interesting question for you:
Can RFC 2047 encoded text in the Subject line of an email contain encoded line break characters (i.e.,, ^J, a.k.a. 0x0A)?
I don't think they should, because the point of RFC 2047 encoding is to encode non-ASCII characters which would otherwise be legal in the Subject line, not to encode characters which would otherwise be _illegal_, which includes line breaks.
RFC 2047 itself doesn't give a definitive answer.
What do you think?
