There's no easy solution to this one.  The encoding for filenames in
messages isn't very well standardized across different email clients.  We
had to do *lots* of tweaking to come up with a system that would be
compatible with various email clients out there.  I honestly don't know how
we can do better without making it so that if you send attachments to
certain email clients, the names will be scrambled.
