No, you got a "7bit" CTE, but the charset was right.

Try the following:

Put "Thïs" into an empty buffer, and then eval
`(progn (mm-encode-body) (mm-body-encoding))'.  You should get
`7bit'.  If not, go to the "ï" and eval
`(char-charset (following-char))'.  You should get `latin-iso8859-1'.
If you get `ascii', then, uhm.  Uhm?
