>From my muttrc (which comes from debian):

# Name: send_charset
# Type: string
# Default: "us-ascii:iso-8859-1:utf-8"
# 
# 
# A list of character sets for outgoing messages. Mutt will use the
# first character set into which the text can be converted exactly.
# If your ``$charset'' is not iso-8859-1 and recipients may not
# understand UTF-8, it is advisable to include in the list an
# appropriate widely used standard character set (such as
# iso-8859-2, koi8-r or iso-2022-jp) either instead of or after
# "iso-8859-1".
