Yep!  There is a hacky script I wrote a while to deal with this stuff too (we need to integrate it into the analyzer at some point though)
	https://github.com/sethhall/bro-junk-drawer/blob/master/smtp-decode-encoded-word-subjects.bro

If you load that script, it adds another field to smtp.log named "decoded_subject".
