JIRA loops, repeatedly creating issues, when an incoming email's attachment cannot be parsed

When JIRA is configured to parse incoming mails (from POP/IMAP) to create new issues, it will go into a loop repeatedly creating issues if the email attachment cannot be parsed.

For instance, if an email's attachment has an encoding Java doesn't support (eg. utf-7 - see JRA-5812), then JIRA loops, creating an issue and then failing to clear it because the attachment isn't processed.
