Error description

• MailMimeService fails when mimemessage is in Japanese.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• MailMimeService fails when mimemessage is created in Japanese.
  The fix is to encode base64 to the payload, and set header to
  base64 to MimeBodyPart.
  The PrimaryDocument out from MailMimeService will be displayed
  in Base64.
  Users Affected:
  All
  Platforms Affected:
  All
  

Problem conclusion

• To fix the issue,
  the payload from the previous step needs to be encoded with
  base64.
  Created a new Document with base64encoded outputstream, and use
  inputstream from primary document to read back the payload, then
  use base64encoded outputstream to write whatever read. Pass this
  new document to BuildMimeMessage.
  When mimeBodyPart object is created, its header needs to call:
  headers.addHeader("Content-Transfer-Encoding", "base64");
