using that option will earn your messages 2.88 points in a default
SpamAssassin installation. it should not be used when communicating
with the world.
here's the definition we use in our vacation transport:
subject = Auto: I'm away from my mail \
${if def:h_subject: {(was: ${rfc2047:$h_subject:} )}}
the ${rfc2047 function will unfortunately generate illegal encoded words
whenever the Subject is more than 60 letters or so, since it will make
exactly one encoded word, rather than split them up in 76 character
chunks, but this is better than just sending raw 8-bit.
