The utf7 encoding seems to be used quite a lot in
Europe for emails (probably because it's more compact
and readable than utf8+base64 or utf8+quopri).

Some systems use the encoding name "unicode-1-1-utf-7"
for 'utf7':

This patch adds this name as an alias for utf7.

There's no uploaded file!  You have to check the
checkbox labeled "Check to Upload & Attach File"
when you upload a file. In addition, even if you
*did* check this checkbox, a bug in SourceForge
prevents attaching a file when *creating* an issue.

Please try again.

(This is a SourceForge annoyance that we can do
nothing about. :-( )

Here's another version of the patch. BTW,
"UNICODE-1-1-UTF-7" is explicitely mentioned in RFC 1642
(http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1642.html)
