            Bug ID: 4764
           Summary: Wrapped UTF8 encoded subject line displayed with
                    nonexistent quotation marks
           Product: Claws Mail
           Version: 4.2.0
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P3
         Component: Other
          Assignee: users at lists.claws-mail.org
          Reporter: jazz_fan_ts at arcor.de

For example, a thunderbird created message in a german news group contains the
header line:

Subject: =?UTF-8?Q?Re=3A_Gibt_es_nat=C3=BCrliche_Zahlen=2C_deren_Inverses_ne?=
 =?UTF-8?Q?gativ_ist=3F?=

This should be displayed as:

Re: Gibt es natürliche Zahlen, deren Inverses negativ ist?

But in claws mail's list panel (and only there, in the message panel it is
fine) it is displayed as

"Re: Gibt es natürliche Zahlen, deren Inverses ne"gativ ist?

Obviously, quotes were added at the beginning of the subject and at the place
of the wrap. It might well be that this subject line violates an RFC as I seem
to have read here when searching for an existing report for this bug. But since
claws mail is able to display the intended line in the message window, it would
be nice if it did so in the list panel, too.

By the way, replying to that message claws mail produces the subject line:

Subject: Re: Gibt es =?UTF-8?B?bmF0w7xybGljaGU=?= Zahlen, deren Inverses
 negativ ist?

This is displayed correctly in both the list and message panel.
