Comment:

 I think developers should think about fixing this issue. It can get very
 annoying. No, sorry. It does get very annoying, when you receive
 notifications on new comments (from your own or some other blog) and you
 are not able to tell by glancing at subject (in some cases at sender, too)
 what this email is about. For example:

 {{{
 From: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
 <wordpress at somesite.lv>
 Subject: [XXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXX] Comment: "PXXrXXtis frXXXXu"
 }}}

 Also, we need to take in account, that, according to RFC one not only
 needs to base64_encode contents of headers, but it is also required to
 split it into multiple lines, if resulting encoded string is longer than
 84 chars.

 This bug/feature is open since Aug 2004. I hope, that it is time to fix
 this.
