It's not a bug. When displaying as source, the Content-Type header is
not interpreted, so Evolution doesn't know what encoding the characters
are in, so it shows them as "?". "View Source" is mostly for looking at
the headers and MIME structure. The content will be fully un-decoded,
and often not very readable.
