I have been using the version that encodes empty headers to " " but
another way to handle this is to simply not set a VALUE for empty
headers and then fall back to the original parsing method for these
messages. Emails without from/subject/message-id headers are not very
common so perhaps this is a good compromise.

Below is the patch without the " " hack.
