 Ok, I see. Could you please create a bug report about this so that I don't
forget it? Please make sure to mention that this happens when using Outbox
only.

 Here the problem lies: it encodes it the 2nd time.

 This is another bug. It should decode it...

 Actually you could also just press Ctrl-Z in M. Also, instead of sending
the message to a friend you can do "Compose|Preview" from Outbox.

 This subject is actually syntaxically correct, even if semantically wrong.
It has just been encoded in QP twice.

 No, it isn't. It's wrong but not fishy :-) After (first) decoding it would
be "ISO-8859-1?Q?=E4" which is a start of a QP-encoded word. So this still
doesn't explain the original string (which was really invalid) :-(
