BTW, I found that nail or it's successor Heirloom mailx does declare
mails correctly.  Depending on the locale, I got with ``echo "Bläh
föo"|mail -s "test: fü bär" my-address'' ...

SuSE 9.2; LC_CTYPE=de_DE@euro

  User-Agent: nail 11.4 8/29/04
  Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-15

openSUSE 10.2; en_US

  User-Agent: Heirloom mailx 12.1 6/15/06
  Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1

openSUSE 10.2; en_US.UTF-8

  User-Agent: Heirloom mailx 12.1 6/15/06
  Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8

Maybe the user just put a bogus "set charset=..." line in his
/etc/mail.rc or ~/.mailrc file.

Bye, Reiner.
