On my debian 0.7.10-1 installation of roundup it seems
like that in notification mails, messages are encoded
with iso8859-1 instead of UTF-8. 

The mail header contains the line
Content-type: text/plain; charset=utf-8

With Thunderbird an, for example, "ö" character from
roundup displays as "?". If I change thunderbird to
intepret characters as iso-8859-1 it shows up correctly
as "ö". (The difference in coding for an "ö" character
is that it is "F6" hex in iso 8859-1 and "00F6" hex in
UTF-8. )

Messages seems to be encoded ok in html on the web.


Another problem, maybee related to the above is that
when I try to force EMAIL_CHARSET = 'iso-8859-1'  in
config.py, roundup complains with the error message in
the web page:

Edit Error: 'utf8' codec can't decode bytes in position
52-54: invalid data

(positions varies with the position of the "åäö"
letters in the message). No notification mail is sent.
If the message contains no "åäö" it works fine, mail is
sent with 

Content-type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1
in its header.
