Package: reportbug
Version: 6.6.0
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

  The header line "Subject" is changed into quoted printable when the
line is continued on the second line ('folded'), even if the text is
pure US-ASCII.

  This makes the copy of the mail less readable with a read-only
programm like "more" and "less".

 The original 'Subect' lines are:

Subject: Do not change the format of the subject line when
 it continues on the next line

which 'reportbug' changes to

Subject: 
=?iso-8859-1?q?Do_not_change_the_format_of_the_subject_line_when=0D=0A_it_co?=
 =?iso-8859-1?q?ntinues_on_the_next_line?=

N.B.

  'mutt' shows an unfolded 'Subject' line in the header when I submitted
this report.
