Description

https://github.com/apache/incubator-ponymail-foal/blob/f9ef562fd74e9a66a986556b16908ea2ff0c0b4d/tools/archiver.py#L361

The list of keys that are decoded does not seem right.
Why decode "to", but not "cc" or "from"?
Or indeed any of the other headers that may contain charset encoded entries?

Research direction

Start at tools/archiver.py around line 361 and inspect which email headers are selected for charset decoding. Compare the handling of To, Cc, From, and other headers that may contain encoded entries; done means the intended header set is decoded consistently.
