Especially regarding the internationalization (in HylaFAX+) i would 
suggest using UTF-8 in the future development.
Setting an E-Mail Header like
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"
shouldn't be a big problem.
The notification messages should be in UTF-8 too.
As we use UTF-8 in the messages, the E-Mail subject
needs to be UTF-8 encoded too.

This way we shouldn't have future problems, if some chars
are not available in the ISO-8859-1 charset.
(for the subject and the message itself)

... but only my 2 (euro)cents
