I've tried to reproduce the problem on gmane.test, but I do not get the
"squeezed" subject text using OutlookExpress. I tried both plain and html.

It's not just Gennadiy, but also Thorsten and some others on the list as
well. The subject of the root of this thread had a carriage return and/or
linefeed and tab as white space. I tried cutting/pasting in a tab into OE,
but it is received as text.
