Problem Description: Try to use a trademark symbol in the email "FROM" name. This works in ColdFusion 2016u7, but was broken after the u8 & 9 updates.
Steps to Reproduce: Send an email with a copright, trademark or other non-alphanumeric ASCII characters. (Use your own email & server settings.)
<cfmail to="email@test.com" subject="REALTORS#CHR(174)# Test" from="""REALTORS#CHR(174)# Test"" <email@test.com>">
REALTORS#CHR(174)# Test
</cfmail>
Actual Result: The text is lowercased, characters are stripped, extra characters are added to beginning & ending of name string.
xn--"realtors test" -vwa
Expected Result: This is the subject taht we've always experienced... the same value that was initially passed without any modification. These characters are retained in the subject and text/html body of the message, just not in the email from "name".
"REALTORS® Test"
