The other user, running Thunderbird or Kontact, (or my own Kontact instance in the “sent-mail” folder), gets the message and interprets the post-decryption body as ISO-8859-1 (or Windows-1252, probably) instead of UTF-8. Manually switching the encoding to Unicode in the menu corrects this… for this one message. (See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/1108980 as well.) The problem here is that the human message encoding (everything within the PGP armour) must be separated from the transport message encoding (the RFC822 message in which the “-----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE”…“END PGP MESSAGE-----” is transmitted) must be separated from each other, which they aren’t. Please fix this, it harms using those MUAs in an enterprise environment.
