And here is a simpler version of a filename encoding that works.

The trick is to remove the charset specification from the following line:
filename*=ISO-8859-7''%C4%EF%EA%E9%EC%E1%F3%F4%E9%EA%FC.doc
and present it to Internet Explorer browsers as:
filename*=%C4%EF%EA%E9%EC%E1%F3%F4%E9%EA%FC.doc
which allows them to correctly display the filename while
downloading-saving the file.

Thanks.
