OK, now I have had another look at the code, and it seems I was
confused. Still am, for that matter. 8^)

What I was longing for was to be able to say something like

  @EmailOutputEncodings = qw(us-ascii iso-8859-1 utf-8);

in RT_SiteConfig.pm, and *that* functionality doesn't seem to be there.

On the other hand, I now discovered that I18N.pm has a *hardcoded*
fallback from $EmailOutputEncoding to iso-8859-1 to utf-8, so if I
change $EmailOutputEncoding from its default value utf-8 to us-ascii,
I should get my dream behaviour already in RT 3.4.4, right?
