** Observed with 10/31/2001 Win32 trunk build **

This is a companion bug to Bug 52428. 
Under multilingual OSs like Win2000, NT4, WinXP, Mac OSX, etc., 
the file names are not restricted to those supported in the 
locale encoding. Thus, on a Japanese OS, you might have a file
name in Latin 1. Since the operating system allows for this,
then in attaching such files, we should be able to handle it 
equally well in Mail. 
In Bug 52428, I proposed the following:

1. On OS's which support both system encoding and Unicode for filenames,
   e.g. Win2000, WinXP, and maybe Win NT4, 
   
   a) Check if the filename encoing can be supported in the chosen 
      mail-send encoding. If so, encode the filename with that encoding.
   b) Otherwise, fall back to UTF-8.

This part was not included in the fix for Bug 52428. 
This bug is filed to address the above proposal.

nhotta mentions that we need to have a general way of 
handling such filenames. Simialr issues are also discussed in
Bug 58866.

I think this is a duplicate of 172337 and possibly 104934
(I think the mac os is also logged.)
