The digest is a single-message, and not a multipart one in the MIME
sense, so it can only have one character set. Logically, the digester
should "promote" any non-ASCII content to Unicde, which should be a
superset of any other character set found in email, and send the whole
thing in UTF-8.... But I'm not subscribed to the digest and don't know
what actually happens.
