Summary:  Escaping of '@' corrupts ISO-2022-JP text

Original Submission:  v2.6.0 add the blanket conversion of the '@' character
to &#40; entity reference in an attempt to provide a simple
form of a default obfsucation for email address in messages.
However, this corrupts ISO-2022-JP based archives since
'@' is used in encoding escape sequences.

The following is copied from a post from Takashi P.KATOH:

| Subject: =?iso-2022-jp?B?GyRCQCQzJhsoQg==?=

should be decoded as

| ^[ $ B @ $ 3 & ^[ ( B         # SE-KAI, means WORLD
       ^^^ ^^^
       SE  KAI

but v2.6.0 converts this as

| ^[ $ B &#x40; $ 3 & ^[ ( B    # BROKEN!
