Steps to reproduce:
I received an email with a subject that is decoded with utf8:
Subject: =?utf-8?B?RS1NYWlsIMOEbmRlcnVuZ2Vu?=
Actual results:
The subject was shown **** in the email-list, see the attachment for details. Repairing the msf-file changes the view, so I see now other characters. A friend see parts of an older email he view before.
Expected results:
The subject should be shown correctly.
I set the importance to critical, because a buffer overflow could be the reason for that behavior.
Severity: normal → critical

Is the subject the last header before the blank line that separates the headers from the mesage body?

I suspect this is a dup of bug 701194 - it's not a buffer write overflow, but most likely simply reading uninitialized memory.
