Description

[ji]

******observed with win32 2000091909 and linux 2000091906 build******

On the reply or forward as attachment compose window, extra spaces are inserted into the subject field if the subject is very 
long.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Have a mail with long non-ASCII  subject in you IMAP mailbox. 
    This problem doesn't happen if the mail is the POP/local folder.
    I'll attach a test mail folder later.
2. Select the mail and click on Reply or select Message | Forward as | Attachment

On reply/forward compose window, you'll see in the subject field, extra spaces are inserted. But after the mail is received, you 
won't see the extra spaces in the subject,

Attachment: a mail folder containing a JPN mail with long subject. Please unzip it and copy the mail to IMAP.

This is related to 38192, we resolve that by removing tabs before adding the 
subject string to thread pane. We can do the same here.
We eventually want to have better way of line unfolding code.
