Let's try something simple first. The following results in a new message with the accented characters included:

tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
    set gNewMsgSource to "C'est française que je veux écrire."
    make new incoming message with properties ¬
        {content:gNewMsgSource, read status:untouched} ¬
            at folder 1
end tell

Notice that I used “content” rather than “source,” and I did <not> specify any character set. This works. Perhaps you need to specify the recipient, from field, and subject separately. I’m not sure. Maybe all you have to do is omit the character set. I left out “account” and used “folder 1” for simplicity; I’m sure you could specify that if you wanted to.
