I am stick to iso8859-15 since I started with Linux (several years ago), and putting apart the time I stayed with the broken KMail config, charset has not been a problem, given that KMail recognizes the charset in incoming messages and displays it apropiately.

I had a similar problem several months ago, and I found that KMail was not really changing in the configuration my preference for charset. Take a look at .kde/share/config/kmailrc and search for 8859-15 strings. I made a copy, then I removed some line(s) regarding the wrong charset, and I run again KMail, with success. Give it a try.

Some about charsets and kmail
Hi, well this message is mainly for the people who as me, are living in a world with accents and different characters in the occidental world. I'm sure that people with different alphabet the situation is worst :-) I write mainly in three languages: Catalan, Spanish and English. My main problems are in Catalan and Spanish with the accented chars and ç ñ. I thought that I sent my messages using utf-8. Howeber I discovered that it was not true. Although that in the kmail configuration, the editor part, the charset, I have: utf-8 utf-8(locale) iso8859-15 kmail sent message with the last one, I don't know why. Also, I have selected the box with maintain the charset in the replies if is possible. Howeber I have found that I replied a message with utf-8 with iso8859-15, so the replied message is impossible so see ok because the merge of charsets. There are also a part in the configuration that I really don't understand what does it means. In the appearance section the Message window tab, there are two settings that I don't really understand: Fallback character encoding Override character encoding. So, with all of this I would like to ask how I have to configure kmail to minimize the encoding problems because all of this stuff is a bit messy for me.
