------------------------------------

             Summary: Provide a way to override the default charset for mime 
parts without specified charset or no Content-Type header
                 Key: MIME4J-230
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MIME4J-230
             Project: James Mime4j
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: parser (core)
    Affects Versions: 0.7.2
            Reporter: Clément Denis


When the charset or the Content-Type header is missing from a part in a 
multipart message, the charset defaults to us-ascii, as it should according to 
RFC 2046/5.1.

For some applications (especially those dealing with non-US mime messages), 
this default results in broken encoding most of the time.

The default charset is hardcoded in DefaultBodyDescriptor, and cannot be easily 
customized. There should be a way to define this default charset.
