Oh, it's really terrible.  I do have 'reply-in-same-charset' set,
so as to not trouble people with less sophisticated mailers, and
it seems the mailer maybe ignores the 'sendcharsets=utf-8' if the
same-charset ISO-8859-1 is sufficient to represent the content!
What a considerate mailer!  So, for you

and righteousness, this time without reply-in-same-charset and
encoding=8bit and i bet it comes out as UTF-8 on the other end:

(And, just in case -- the Google translation is a bit too rude.)
