Yes!

Exactly as you described, I can insert 8-bit characters in pre -mode
(which I have not even noticed before.. 
<blush>) and, when changed to pre, the invisible chars appear !

Now the äöå-characters work like they should. And, this is just what I need -- can I make
the pre-setting a default mode? (I moved to Evolution from GNUS)

Thanks for your help!

I guess that the problem still exists, though, in every mode other than pre...
