Cannot test an empty environment on Windows: Windows requires at least the
SYSTEMROOT environment variable to start Python.

Analogous to the decode_header fix, this fix makes Header.append and
make_header correctly handle the unknown-8bit charset introduced by email5.1,

make_header(decode_header(x)) == x invariant was broken in the face of the
unknown-8bit charset.

This updates b21fdfa0019c, which fixed this bug incorrectly.

This makes them work like the close provided by regular file objects.

All of the other methods in mailbox that create message objects take care to
close the file descriptors they use, so it seems to make sense to have
__getitem__ do so as well.

AbstractHTTPHandler.do_open() of urllib.request closes the HTTP connection if
