Description Lastique 2016-06-27 09:02:33 UTC
For some emails with national characters in Subject the subject is displayed incorrectly in the kmail message list. I attached the Subject header from such an email and also screenshots of kmail and Thunderbird displaying it. Thunderbird displays it correctly.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. You just have to receive a message similarly formatted.

Actual Results:  
The subject in kmail contains unrecognized characters.

Expected Results:  
The subject should not contain unknown characters.

Kubuntu 16.04, x86_64.
