I can't reproduce. With the recent charset changes we ALWAYS assume that incoming data from the browser is in UTF-8. So your draft message will ALWAYS be saved with the headers UTF-8 MIME encoded. It doesn't matter what the charset dropdown selection in IMP is set to for drafts; obviously in dimp, data MUST be UTF-8 because of JSON encoding. Sure enough, UTF-8 is now hardcoded into the saveDraft() function call (imp/compose.php:367). Is your browser somehow sending ISO-8859-1 instead?

When i compose an email with accented characters and save it as a draft, the accented characters are wrongly displayed after that. It seems to be a problem with the ISO-8859-1 encoding. My solution was to encode it in UTF-8, but to be honest i don't know if this is the correct fix.
