It most likely conforms strictly to <a
href="http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc822#page-21";>Rfc 822</a> which is
the standard, and mostly canonical, and allows for CR and LF but not the
two together (CRLF), if I'm reading it correctly:
text = <any CHAR, including bare ; => atoms, specials,
CR & bare LF, but NOT ; comments and
including CRLF> ; quoted-strings are
; NOT recognized.
optional-field =
/ "Message-ID" ":" msg-id
/ "Resent-Message-ID" ":" msg-id
/ "In-Reply-To" ":" *(phrase / msg-id)
/ "References" ":" *(phrase / msg-id)
/ "Keywords" ":" #phrase
/ "Subject" ":" *text
/ "Comments" ":" *text
/ "Encrypted" ":" 1#2word
/ extension-field ; To be defined
/ user-defined-field ; May be pre-empted

Can you have multi-line subject lines? I didn't think that was
possible.
Yes. This is the header of a mail you sent to -patches:
From: Bruce Momjian <bruce@xxxxxxxxxx>

Subject: Re: [PATCHES] Allow commenting of variables in
Note the Subject is truncated w.r.t. the mail you were responding, which
had this:
From: Zdenek Kotala <Zdenek.Kotala@xxxxxxx>
To: Peter Eisentraut <peter_e@xxxxxxx>
Cc: pgsql-patches@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx, bruce@xxxxxxxxxx

See your sent-mail folder, you'll see that the message you actually sent
had something like this:
Subject: Re: [PATCHES] Allow commenting of variables in
postgresql.conf to -
What happened with the second line? What I concluded has happened, from
observations on the other list, Majordomo removed it.
