Summary: email.Header() encoding does not work properly

Initial Comment:
CMFCollectorNG uses email.Header() to encode 
the Subject of notification emails. In some case
we discovered that Evolution and Mutt displayed
an empty subject. 

The Subject

"[CMFCollectorNG] #31 (Comment): noch: ein test"

is converted to 

Subject:
=?iso-8859-1?q?=5BCMFCollectorNG=5D_=2331_=28Comment=29=3A_ein=3A_test?=

The problem seems to occur if there is more than one colon
inside the subject.

Mailings with 

"[CMFCollectorNG] #31 (Comment): noch ein test"

as subject are recognized by the mail readers and being
displayed.

Upgrading to the latest email packages from the Python
HEAD did not solve the problem.
