Is this portion of the mhbuild man page relevant?
When composing a text content, you may indicate the rele-
vant character set by adding the "charset" parameter to
the directive.
#<text/plain; charset=iso-8859-5
If a text content contains any 8-bit characters (charac-
ters with the high bit set) and the character set is not
specified as above, then mhbuild will assume the character
set is of the type given by the environment variable
MM_CHARSET. If this environment variable is not set, then
the character set will be labeled as "x-unknown".
