Everything should be happily in UTF-8; in pipe.c, we're specifying that
all of our outgoing emails are 8bit utf8 with these headers:

      fprintf(mailpipe, "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8\n");
      fprintf(mailpipe, "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\n");

If you could zip and attach one of the broken messages to the list, we
can check to make sure it's really doing what we think it's doing. I'll
also go and look to see if there's some special magic needed for OE to
consume utf8 without going crazy.
