How i understand, it's provided by imap-client - if no MIME-Version set, 
no charset returned (even if charset specify in content-type). But 
why...? Is this broke some RFC?
Now, i try create workaround for this? For example, fetch and parse 
headers manually in _setInfo method of MIME_Structure, if 
$part->ifparametes is false. But can you tell me, how get message index 
(for MIME_Headers) in _setInfo? Now i try add index to $part structure 
(in imp/lib/MIME/Contents.php)... but may be more simple way?
