Attachment: Problem mail message

I've got a report that Thunderbird can not properly display cp932 encoded message, sent from iphone mail client.
If I manually select Shift_JIS from list of encodings for this letter, it displays fine.

I've added cp932=Shift_JIS alias to thundebird/res/charsetalias.properties to resolve this issue. I've made this patch, though I'm not really sure where this file lives in source.
