[dev] Problem with 8 bits caracters in IMP message preview

[Jan Schneider]

The preview function is a really simple method to get the first lines from a
message and show it as-is. We don't do any message processing beside
stripping html tags, so this is the expected behaviour and I don't have any
intentions at the moment to change it.
