I re-implemented parts of the mail and import commands (inspiring from your patches). They now use the email Python package. The mail command encodes the body to 7 or 8bit depending on non-ascii characters. The headers are QP-encoded. The import command can decode messages properly and can also handle multipart e-mails.

I still have to write a test script but my simple tests showed that it works. Please let me know if there is anything wrong (especially with the QP-encoding of the mail headers).

Thanks.
