    If user doesn't modify the replied-to-msg subject, use the original subject · 69111a8f

    (which might be UTF-8 encoded). This works-around the problem that Accession
    reported in #synchronet with my reply to a UTF-8 encoded message using a CP437
    terminal which resulted in a message body that was UTF-8 encoded but a message
    subject that was CP437 encoded. This mix of encodings is not supported by FTN
    standards.
    
    This is just a work-around since if the user modifies the subject the result
    could still have the CP437 unside-down question marks (indicating
    non-translatable UNICODE chars) and those should be converted to UTF-8
    chars when going out on FTN or being stored in the message base. So there's
    still a bug here somewhere that I need to look into more.
