We had similiar problems surrounding the combination of "attachments" +
"non-standard chars in the body".  The main characters we were catching was the
angled quotes.  This is commonly inserted when a user copies text from a
MSword/OOo document and pastes it in body.  Those apps translate quotes into the
fancy for-print ones.  IMP did not like these when attachments were present and
simply refreshed the compose window upon send.

We just added JS regex to the compose.inc template to filter on these problem
characters.
