Description:
------------
When trying to send mail message with the subject, containing some words of non-vestern characters, theese words converted separately without spaces between them. But spaces must be converted too. Otherwise theese spaces are disappeares while displaying subject in E-Mail clients (KMail, Mozilla, etc.).

i changed the code at the end of mime.php file from this:

$replacement = preg_replace('/([\x80-\xFF])/e', '"=" . strtoupper(dechex(ord("\1")))', $value);
$hdr_value = str_replace($value, '=?' . $this->_build_params['head_charset'] . '?Q?' . $replacement . '?=', $hdr_value);

to this:

$replacement = preg_replace('/([\x80-\xFF])/e', '"=" . strtoupper(dechex(ord("\1")))', $value);
$value .= '=20';
$hdr_value = str_replace($value, '=?' . $this->_build_params['head_charset'] . '?Q?' . $replacement . '?=', $hdr_value);

so, just added one string: $value .= '=20'; whicha adds at the end of each word a space, encoded as '=20'

i've not tested it a lot, but it seems to be working...

That problem and solution was already discussed here:

There's also the sample of the patched method.
