"The separator for long headers should be "\r\n" followed by either a
space or a "\t""

It is exactely what i do..
The bug tracker put the long subject of my previous example on 2 lines
but it is a sequence \r\n<SP>

This code also reproduces the bug : 

mail(
  'bobe@phpcodeur.net',
  "this is a long subject \r\n to test the mail function",
  'This is the message',
  "From: my@domain.tld\nMIME-Version: 1.0"
);

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to
report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

The separator for long headers should be "\r\n" followed by either a
space or a "\t" no other character such as "\n" or "\r" will be
accepted. If you don't use tab or a space entire sequence will be
converted to spaces.

The bug occurs for example with this code :

mail(
'test@domain.tld',
"=?iso-8859-1?Q?ceci_est_un_petit_test_pour_d=E9terminer_les_bugs_?=\r\n
=?iso-8859-1?Q?existants_avec_la_classe_mail?=",
'This is the message',
"From: my@domain.tld\nMIME-Version: 1.0"
);

result is : 
------------
 =?iso-8859-1?Q?existants_avec_la_classe_mail?=
From: my@domain.tld
MIME-Version: 1.0

This is the message.
------------

Maybe that the problem occurs with qmail because there are sequences
\r\n instead of \n in long subject ?

Where is the bug occuring imap, or something else? Who does the message
parsing?

Sorry for the bad translation :/
note that quoted-printable encoding plays no role in the problem

Description:
------------
Hello, 

The problem arises when we envoit an email with the subject encoded in
quoted-printable and of type "long header". 

skip_long_header_sep routine accept accepts only the separations
\r\n<LWS> but on some systems, it doubles the line feed in the header:


to test, send a long subject on a linux system

Reproduce code:

	boundary="-----=_Part0_6fEwBy2N74yqUJ0vNbQYrw0HBJrhLT--"

This is a multi-part message in MIME format.

Expected result:
----------------
simply that subject of mail correctly display

Actual result:
--------------
the headers undo the long sybject aren't interpreted
