Problem with reply and folded From line

I just noticed that elm (2.2, patchlevel 9) does not correctly handle
folded From lines.  That is, if I use reply, it ignores all but the
first line.  Am I missing a patch that fixes this or is this an
outstanding bug?

(Yes, RFC 822 does permit folded header lines, and the BSD mail program
corrrectly handles them on a reply.)

Thanks - Mark
