Issue processing UTF7 mails

Description
Hello,
we have an issue with processing UTF7 mails:
exception: code converter not found (UTF-7 to UTF-8)
["/srv/redmine/public_html/lib/redmine/codeset_util.rb:25:in `encode'", "/srv/redmine/public_html/lib/redmine/codeset_util.rb:25:in `to_utf8'"
Are there any ideas to solve this issue?
Thx
Falk

This encyclopedia article for UTF7 seems to be a good place to start
toshio harita: utf-7 is relevant only for email processing. Ruby still supports it, but it's a little bit tricky. This will work:
require "net/imap"
Net::IMAP.decode_utf7(mail_body)
The same problem with Windows-1258. Attached patch should cover all not supported code pages.
A test with a real Vietnamese email added into the patch.
