In the outgoing message window, when set to be sent - not as draft -, choose "Show full header" (Shift-Cmd-H) from the View menu. Check for the line: "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII". One could also possibly make an applescript that is triggered on sending, that does something to the effect of in a mail filter: "Run every time on outgoing messages" and... "if adressee is in group USASCII-addressees" then... "run script verifyUSASCII" That script in turn parses the header of each outgoing messsage and if this line says something else, then aborts the sending process and opens the offending messages. I'm hoping here that outgoing messages can be referred to effectively in AS, something I haven't actually tried. Backside is that the major part of the work is still left to do, ie identifying the chars, but you'd have avoided a mistake on your part.
