My preferred email client is "Mutt", which runs in a Unix shell just
like pine or elm. No fancy gui here, just good old plain text. Or, so I
thought. Apparently it knew how to interpret that crazy Windows subject
line and hide it from me. When I asked to see the raw headers, this is

Using chrome and I don't see a problem, on
neither Linux nor Windows.
Ah, the benefit of special filters that by default remove Windoze CRAP.
