Section 3.2.6 says:

   unstructured    =       *([FWS] utext) [FWS]

It should say:

   unstructured    =       *([FWS] utext) (*WSP / obs-FWS)

Notes:

A prominent example is the <subject> defined in section 3.6.5:

subject = "Subject:" unstructured CRLF

Expanding the [FWS] at the end (ignoring <obs-FWS>) results in:

subject = "Subject:" *([FWS] utext) [[*WSP CRLF] 1*WSP] CRLF


Alexey: note that this was fixed in RFC 5322 (which obsoleted RFC 2821) in a slightly different way.
