Hmm:
Content-Type: text/plain;
  name*0*=ISO-8859-1''%61%74%74
  name*1*=UTF-8''Something_else
  name*2*=BIG5''%FE%45

I thought the "charset''" syntax is allowed in the first line only?

Well, I agree with your comments to switch to (internal) UTF8 completely 
nowadays. I was trying to do something about it 2 years ago (I have a mail 
in the postpond folder from that days), but failed to combine UTF8 with 
the current toolset, because it is so heavily tied to the Mail:: packages, 
which are strict ASCII.

Maybe a complete split towards MIME::Tools::UTF8 would solve the problem 
and MIME::Tools returns encoded names only.
