The underlying problem is that there is no Subject header line, period.
I've seen this same behavior, and in every case the subject line was
missing, entirely.

The resend module will correctly handle an empty Subject:

        # prepend subject prefix
        #
        if ( (/^subject:\s*/i)
           ... code to replace subject line ...

so that's not the problem.  You'd have to modify resend to add a
subject line if it can't find one and the subject_prefix is non-null.

Jason - will majordomo2 add the missing subject line in this case?
