Patch: DIGEST-MD5 and Charset "utf8"

Hello.

Saw a warning in another List.

"warning: SASL authentication failure: Charset must be UTF-8"

This message comes from the DIGEST-MD5 PLugin while connecting to an 
smtp-Server.

...
S: 250-AUTH=LOGIN
S: 250-AUTH CRAM-MD5 DIGEST-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN NTLM
S: 250-STARTTLS
S: 250 SIZE
C: AUTH DIGEST-MD5
S: 334

Decoded:

realm="smtp.email.vodafone.de",nonce="a8d13b2523e5aeecf7ce58475c64885d",algorithm=md5-sess,charset=utf8,qop=auth

The Server announces it's Charset as "utf8" not "utf-8", Cyrus-SASL does not 
like this and throws the warning. Maybe it's safe to check both.
