First, Mew treats ISO-8859-1 well wherever it is used (in a body or a
header).

Second, your Subject: was displayed well on my environment (even in
Emacs 20.3).

I guess your environment is strange because your previous message
constains, ASCII, Japanese, and Latin-1, for which Mew should choose
ISO-2022-JP-2.

I suggest to put this following in your ".emacs".
