Although I love criticizing RubyMail, I think this is Sup's fault. I
don't think it's in RubyMail's proper purview to canonicalize header
values (though header names are fine).

Anyways, I think I've fixed this in git. Give it a try.

It's certainly an option, but with so many workarounds invested in
RubyMail, I'm not sure it's a win. A patch that magically makes
everything work would certainly be considered.
