That form is NOT VALID. For proper encoding, please see
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc2047#section-5

That form is valid, as long as it follows RFC 2047 requirements.

The email sending application is in error. It needs to be fixed
to satisfy https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc2047#section-5
