Fixed Special characters in Board Title get converted to HTML in subject of outbound email

[Saeed]

Affected version

2.1.6 Patch 1

Hi!

I noticed that if the Board Title (Admin CP > Setup > Options > Basic Board Information) contains an ampersand, the ampersand is converted into '&' in the subject of the email sent out as an outbound email test (Admin CP > Tools).

After some experimentation, I've actually noticed that other special characters are also converted into HTML in the subject of outbound email.

e.g.

For a board with the title "Joe & Jane's forum", the email sent out will have the subject "Outbound email test from Joe & Jane's forum".
