Unfortunately, RFC 2047 encoding is explicitly forbidden to be used for
MIME parameter values. There is a different standard for encoding MIME
parameter values (RFC 2231) that nmh supports. But it seems that a lot
of MUAs still get this wrong. I'd rather leave it that mhfixmsg will
correct this instead of natively decoding it.
