Oh, I see it.

Your mailer is crap, and destroys utf-8 characters. In particular:

-M: MichaÃâ MirosÃâaw <mirq-linux@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

should be

-M: MichaÅ MirosÅaw <mirq-linux@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

I'm not sure what part of your flow is broken, because your mailer
*claims* that it used

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8

but it very much did not. When you attached that file, it did some odd
character conversion crud.

There may be other examples of this, but that's the one I see and the
one that caused that to fail in that hunk.
