Summary: Invitation bug

Initial Comment:
There seems to be a bug in parsing the confirmation of 
an invitation to join a mailing list. I suspect this has 
something to do with MIME decoding of the Subject: 
header.

When sending a reply to the autogenerated invitation (in 
my case, using pine), with this header:

Subject: Re:
 =?iso-8859-1?q?confirm_55ed0163ec2f0a56ac257f708b
470b6a892935f2?=

nothing happened. But when sending a reply with this 
header (which was the case if I used Netscape Mail or 
Evolution):

Subject: Re: confirm 
9924a8cb2e31d2f1605ca6228ff210901ff17aba

I was subscribed. Maybe Mailman doesn't decode the 
Subject: before parsing it?
