If :subject is given, its argument will be used as a message subject.
Otherwise, the subject is constructed by prepending `Re:'  (or any other
word, given by :reply_prefix tag) to the original message subject.

If necessary, the subject will be encoded using 'quoted-printable'
method.

The tag :mime does not affect subject creation. It only affects the way
the message text will be represented. If :mime is given, the entire
message will be in MIME format, and the user text will be encoded using
'quoted-printable' method. If it is not given, the text will be inserted
in the message verbatim.

I have forgotten to say that vacation expects all strings to be in
UTF-8. However, although it is required by the RFC, I am evaluating a
possibility of using another encodings (possibly via `#pragma encoding'
or something similar).
