It seems to work in a few simple tests, but fails badly in others.  I
fixed one obvious problem with it, but the rest are still there.

However, the current state of affairs in the new Rmail regarding
non-ASCII characters is so badly broken that it's impossible to say
which problems are due to rmail-redecode-body and which are caused
elsewhere.

I suggest to leave this bug open until the other bugs related to
encoding/decoding (#2015, #2017, and #2018) are fixed, and then
revisit this one.

Thanks.
