That is what send_charset is for, as pointed out by Alain above.
Here is an example from my .muttrc:
set send_charset="us-ascii:koi8-r"
In other words, it will try to use us-ascii charset by default, but
there are any Russian characters in Subject or body, it will
automatically switch to koi8-r. I think that is what you need.
