Given a subject header containing the sequence "-->" NEWLINE TAB "<--",
(see message-id <87ya1v8y5p.fsf at erlenstar.demon.co.uk> in alt.dev.null)
the results are:

INN 1.7.2+insync, tradspool:

xhdr subject 3619
221 subject fields follow
3619 header fold test -->  <--

INN 2.3.0, probably CNFS:

xhdr Subject 111
221 Subject fields follow
111 header fold test -->   <--

my own server:

xhdr subject 4304
221 subject fields follow
4304 header fold test --> <--

a Typhoon (I think):

xhdr subject 744
221 subject data follows
744 header fold test --> <--

a Twister:

xhdr subject 1192
221 subject fields follow
1192 header fold test --> <--

Dnews 5.0f:

xhdr Subject 744
221 Subject fields follow
744 header fold test --> <--

Diablo:

xhdr subject 252
221 subject data follows
252 header fold test --> <--


maxwell.syr.edu seems to be unreachable for some reason, so I can't
check what Tortoise does.
