Outlook Express ; UTF-7 ; References header field problem

When Outlook Express replies to an UTF-7 encoded message, it erroneously
puts the References header field in UTF-7 format.

By default, OE replies in the format of the message it replies on. With
a specially crafted References header field, this can lead to a very
long References header field.

I have not tested yet whether this can cause other problems than broken
threads.
