Pine as provided from the University of Washington only uses it’s internal code tables for character set conversion which limits the number of charsets supported to about a dozen or so. With pine4.61, UTF-8 has been added as a character-set from which pine can recode from, but it can’t recode others to UTF-8 for displaying mail. If you want to see some support for UTF-8 in pine, ask the pine maintainers on the pine-info list to incorporate support for it.
