I received a message from a broken MUA (JavaMail) containing (I simplified a
bit):
Subject: =?UTF-8?Q?Echangez_votre_ordinateur_contre_un?=
=?UTF-8?Q?_...processe=0D=0Aur_Intel_?=
When replying to this message with $edit_headers set, I got in the editor:
Subject: Re: Echangez votre ordinateur contre un ...processe
^M
ur Intel
i.e. invalid headers since a wrapped line must start with either a space or a
tab character. Mutt should filter out control and non-printable characters.
