A workaround: (until pine gets proper UTF-8 support[1]):
Check (enable) "pass-control-characters-as-is" in the config screen.
BTW: maybe you'd like the following settings, if you have nidiv installed:
display-filters=_CHARSET(UTF-8)_ /path/to/bidiv,
_CHARSET(ISO-8859-8-i)_ /path/to/bidiv,
_CHARSET(windows-1255)_ /path/to/bidiv
(from my .pinerc)
