Additional info: Messages sent earlier contained the header in the
following form:

 To: =?utf-8?B?QmHFoWnEhyw=?= P. <[email protected]>

And now the header looks like this:

 To: =?iso-8859-1?Q?Basi=B4c=2C?= P. <[email protected]>

So for some reason, mutt seems to have switched from using utf-8 to
iso-8859-1 for encoding, and I cannot figure out why it did. This
affects not only headers, but the mail body, too.
