I got interested and tried my two clients here.

Outlook 2003 / Exchange uses RFC 2047:
  Content-Disposition: attachment;
    filename="=?iso-8859-1?Q?test_=E4_test?="


Thunderbird 1.5 / Linux uses RFC 2231:
  Content-Disposition: inline;
    filename*=ISO-8859-1''%74%65%73%74%20%E4%20%74%65%73%74


Sigh. I fear there is no good workaround for your problem. If you'd like
to add support for this particular extension, check out mime.c and
mime.h. :)
