When forwarding a mail as an attachment, if the mail has Japanese sender and
recipient name, those Ja names are displayed as dots when received.

Steps of reproduce:
1. Have a mail in your mail box with sender and recipient's name containing
   Japanese characters.
2. Forward the mail to the testing account itself as an attachment.
   Select View | Character Set | Japanese (ISO-2022-JP) before sending it out.
3. Open the mail after received.

You'll see on the message view pane, the Japanese sender and recipient name
are displayed as dots in the mail body.

It doesn't occur with M13.

2. Put it in your testing mail directory.
3. select the 3rd mail in the smoketest mail folder 
4. Forward it to your testing account as an attachment.
