Hello,

working on my list of things to check, I am pleased to see that
parse_quote_2047() splits long strings into several MIME words, but it
separates them by a space.

Unless Exim folds lines at another place, that may create illegal
long lines. What would break if Exim used a newline and a space?

You may still need to introduce fold marks in string expressions before
and after encoded parts, when building a new header line, but that's
no problem.
