What was the From: and Subject: headers of that message? Trough my own
tests, if the body of the message is in us-ascii, _but_ one of the headers
contains 8bit encoded to 7bit, the reply will use the same charset the headers
use.
Anyhow, you shouldn't bother about this at all, since the message in us-ascii
will be perfectly readable even in the case when the header of this message
implies that it's in windows-1250;-))
