How do I make sure Apache 1.3.29 supports UTF-8?

I tried AddDefaultCharset UTF-8 in the relevant VirtualHost section  
and it made no difference.

The comments in the code at the relevant point in  
lib/Horde/MIME/Contents.php refer to the browser's charset, not the  
server's:

         /* If this is a text/* part, AND the text is in a different character
          * set than the browser, convert to the current character set.
          * Additionally, if the browser does not support UTF-8, give the
          * user a link to open the part in a new window with the correct
          * character set. */
         $charset = $mime_part->getCharset();

I tried setting the default charset to UTF-8 in Firefox and that  
didn't make any difference either.

As of now, PGP messages coming in as text/plain parts with charset  
UTF-8 fail to trigger PGP decryption and only show this charset message.
