Thanks for the patch Trey.

Two quick ones:
1. cvs diff -u next time
2. Can you provide a small executable test case to prove your patch
works.

Description:
------------
_decodeHeader ignores the charset portion of base64 encoded
headers. Doing so will work for 8859, ANSI and other 7bit compatible
charsets but not for GB* encoded Chinese or other similar "exotic"
character sets.

Similarly, it ignores the charset portion of content-type in the mime
definition of bodies.

This patch should do the same thing as it did before if iconv is not
present and the correct thing if it is present. You'll want to make
sure your iconv.*_encoding php.ini properties are set correctly or set
them at run time with iconv_set_encoding

Actual result:
