The problem is that Heiko's suggestion improperly continues the header
without a folding whitespace (see RFC 2822 section 2.2.3), and therefore
"-4.4" is attempted parsed as a header, which fails due to the lack of a
colon, which is not any display issue in mutt, but actually as expected.
You'd get the same problem with a positive score.

Feel free to amend Heiko's suggestion so that it adds a folding whitespace
at the beginning of each continued line. :)
