That's probably a weakness in the ldap module. Currently, there is no
processing done on the user name. It just goes into the mail header, and
that's it. Before being sent, it's MIME-encoded, of course.
Well, may be what'll work - if your browser handles utf-8 natively - is use
the --enable-unicode configure flag, and after installing put "utf-8" into
html/en-us/CHARSET. This will also result in all your sent mail to go out
with its charset set to utf-8, if you can live with it.
