email: Tolerate non-ASCII non-UTF-8 characters in headers.
* email/email.scm (email->headers+body): If non-ASCII non-UTF-8 characters occur in the headers, do not raise a decoding error. Work around using the substitute conversion strategy. * tests/email.scm ("tolerate non-ASCII characters in headers"): Rename to "decode utf-8 characters in headers". ("tolerate non-ascii non-utf-8 characters in headers"): New test. Reported-by: Christopher Baines <mail@cbaines.net>
