I was talking about good designed mail clients and it seems that I didn't use any without flaws here and there.
I was wrong in assumption that Thunderbird is using automatic detection. I really never had problems reading and writing mails in few languages I use, but obviously I did not use Thunderbird all the time :)
It seems that Claws Mail is better prepared for multilingual correspondence and few other features that work better then in KMail.
KMail2 appears as over-engineered in some user interface elements, and under-engineered in other. Some will argue that it is modern design, but putting date separators in a threaded mode is "killer" feature. It makes threaded mode hard to use. Combined with immaturity of other solutions and bugs in KDE 4.7.2 it managed to be replaced, after many years, with simple client that is missing some features, but nothing that I can't live without.
Not so important for KDE list:
Oy! "Hallo there!" What's with this top posting-thing, eh? :-)

Default in this mail agent is automatic. This means program I was using to write that previous email and, as you didn't check mail headers as suggested below, it is Claws Mail.
It will post new mails in UTF-8, and for answer to some email it will use character set of original mail. My answer to Felix is in US-ASCII, and I didn't touch character set selection. Check character set of this email :) Or you checked only character set :)
Rajko, sit back relax, ... This is a public mail list and you should use a bit of common sense before revealing what your consider a good way to spend time between two emails :)
Here I am concluding that you are still talking about SeaMonkey - "SM" - right? My bad. I failed, thinking that advice to check headers of previous emails will be sufficient lead to solve ambiguity of "this".
And also, as I think, that you stated that SeaMonkey is nothing more than Thunderbird in "sheep's clothing" (ie, SM is the continuation of the Netscape suite, which it is). Well. I didn't state that :) Actually I didn't state anything as in: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Browser_timeline . Although, it is implicit in a whole discussion that SeaMonkey mail component can have some user interface similarities to Thunderbird.
I have been using TB and FF since year dot. In all this time TB has never had an "automatic" default of using a particular character set[##]. Nice to know. I guess my bad (again). I checked and auto selection is off, so I hope I can take your word for that :)
It has never defaulted to using UTF-8 for example. It defaults to Western ISO 8859-1. I guess English version.
I have had to manually set the character set to UTF-8 in TB (and in FF for that matter[##]).
[##] I have to admit that while I have been using both TB and FF since year dot, I have also used the same contents of /.moziilla and /.thundrbird since that year dot - from my earlier days of foolishly using Windows' version of both to then switching to Linux. I was looking for /.moziilla and /.thundrbird, but there is none :) Obviously to much of whatever mean you used (from your advice to me) how to prepare for discussion takes its toll.
