I still have problems with the euro sign.

Using IMP :
compose a new text message and set charset to UTF-8. Send the  
following string : "azerty €"
the received message looks fine in IMP, Thunderbird and Outlook.

compose a new HTML message and set charset to UTF-8. Send the  
following string : "azerty €"
the HTML part looks ok and render just fine in Outlook and  
Thunderbird, but not IMP. I get this with IMP/FF : "azerty â‚¬"

Looking at the source of the message, the encoded string doesn't look  
the same in the text part  :
