Email attachments with UTF-8 filenames do not get delivered

Description

Email attachments with UTF-8 filenames (e.g. ¿¿¿¿.doc) do not get delivered. This may be due to some of the same problems fixed in SAK-6976 with incorrect encoding..

2.5.0 QA has been completed. Unfortunately, there were not resources available to specifically test this issue. If you find this to still be a problem in the latest release (at this point 2.5.2), please reopen the JIRA and add the latest affects version.

Problem appears to be with ISO-8859 encodings (see ).

Can you make sure you don't have any utf-8 configuration problems, as described at http://confluence.sakaiproject.org/confluence/display/I18N/Common+UTF-8+Problems
Also, can you let me know which email client you are testing with (it may be relevant). If QA1-US comes back to life, that would be a good place to verify. I can't reproduce, but am not ruling out that there is still a problem.

Testing on Sakai 2.5 RC3, I am able to mail an attachment with UTF-8 (¿¿¿¿.doc) however, after Sakai processes this and re-sends it out to other email recipients (via Email Archive component) the sent attachment is corrupted (as is the archived one in Email Archive). The new attachment reads as follows: yutf-8yQy_C2_BF_C2_BF_C2_BF_C2_BF.docy

I'm on 2.5 RC3, Ubuntu, Firefox 2.x.
