[RC3 & RC5] Email decode for special characters

The emails for contact form & admin > order update are giving the encoded/decoded special characters of $ ' "

If customer writes &, the email comes through as &
& (ampersand)
' (single quote)
" (double quote)
< (less than)
> (greater than)

It's happening on the Contact form and the notes area of Admin Order Update but not in the copy of the Order that is sent to the customer

It also happens in the customer's email address should the customer be so unfortunate to have an email address with a  ' single quote
and in the Subject line

I fixed the comments text by using some sort of html decode thingy.
Haven't looked at the subject line and email addy yet. Have to have dinner first.

Tested on some variant of RC5

Happy New Year
