Gergö Barany fc5da5d3ff Refactor type 2 message decoding, drop any extra lines from subject. 
This allows other clients to insert headers in extra lines of text between
the Subject and Body fields of the message, as discussed on the 24x7 mailing
list. The PyBitmessage client was never able to meaningfully display
multi-line subjects, so this does not break anything. The extra lines are
thrown away and never stored anywhere, so this also protects against
watermarking attacks.

PyBitmessage

Bitmessage is a P2P communications protocol used to send encrypted messages to another person or to many subscribers. It is decentralized and trustless, meaning that you need-not inherently trust any entities like root certificate authorities. It uses strong authentication which means that the sender of a message cannot be spoofed, and it aims to hide "non-content" data, like the sender and receiver of messages, from passive eavesdroppers like those running warrantless wiretapping programs.
