Actually, the mailbox names use a modified version of UTF-7.  See RFC 3501.  
Note the areas where problems with using unmodified UTF-7 is discussed.

My statement was in regards to "email" messages.  Still you get a "crap" vs. 
"crap" trade-off as shown in another message.  I see many people whining about 
the message bodies being encoded in base64 or Q-P.  It just doesn't bother me 
since I've been dealing with that for over 10 years here in Asia and I've got a 
toolbox that makes life a breeze.
