And this is completely expected.  And this has already been discussed  
(not sure if it was this thread).  Again: for replies, we send the  
message in the charset that the original sender sent (as long as the  
original sender sent in non-ASCII).  That is because this is the only  
charset we know for sure the sender can handle.

Unless/until we decide to send all messages in UTF-8, this is correct  
behavior and not a bug.
