Pine does not work well with UTF-8. It believes all characters are 8-bits
wide. The patched version sort of works but has some problems. We expect
to be releasing an alpha version of alpine sometime this month which does
support UTF-8 reading and composing. Alpine is based on pine. A small
amount of information on alpine is available at
