And it is quite right: it isn't. What happened was that you've forgotten
to specify charset:

> echo "Body äßñ" | "$HOME/blah...blah/mailutils-3.21.90-bin/bin/mail" -s 
> "Subject äßñ" -- "recipi...@example.org"

This should have been:

  echo "Body äßñ" | mail -s "Subject äßñ" --content-type='text/plain; 
charset=utf-8' -- "recipi...@example.org"

Note the --content-type option.
