For thunderbird, ISO8859-1 is the default charset instead of us-ascii.
Thus, some Latin characters can be displayed correctly. But for
evolution, sometimes you have to specify charsets by hand. 

Please try to configure the following options as "ISO-8859-1":

Preference->Mail Preference->Genneral->Default Character Encoding
Preference->Composer Preference->Genneral->Character setting
