hmm, maybe newer versions of git dont convert to base64 ... i tested 1.6.2.3 
and it doesnt mung the subject or the content anymore.  the subject however 
does get encoded with =?utf-8?, but there isnt anything we can do about that 
as that is part of the e-mail spec.

the header says "by xes-inc.com" which kind of implies it was your e-mail 
server doing it ...

you could try sending me the aforementioned patch directly and see if it 
happens when i get it ...
