Look for the "content-type" field in the full headers of the message. If
it does not specify the charset used, then the message does not conform
to the standard (unless if it contains only ascii characters). The
problem must be reported to the mail client or webmail used to send the
message.
However in PowerMail, you can manually change the charset of such
messages from the Mail menu.

When you export to tabulated text, the date format used is MM/DD/YYYY,
and the time format HH:MM:SS, whatever your system language and date/time
format are.
