Nope. RFC 2047 "...describes extensions to RFC 822 to allow non-US-ASCII 
text data in Internet mail header fields". The Umlauts in the Subject: and 
From: fields are not encoded, and they are not US-ASCII (which is plain 7 
bit). The line in my incoming mailbox looks like

Subject: Re: Bug: RFC2047 violation of CVS balsa [äöüÄÖÜ]

which is a violation of rfc2047, see 
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2047.txt?number=2047. The correct line might look 
like

Subject: Re: Bug: RFC2047 violation of CVS balsa \
=?iso-8859-15?q?=5B=E4=F6=FC=C4=D6=DC=5D?=

Or do you see an *encoded* line in your mailbox file or in the source window 
when looking at this mail? This would mean that my mta makes something 
nasty...

Cheers, Albrecht.
