Ah, OK.  You are complaining that it's using koi8 *instead* of utf-8 -
not that it's encoding the header at all.  Sorry, I misunderstood.

Evolution 3.16.5 encodes "ППП" as UTF-8 in the headers on my system:

  To: =?UTF-8?Q?=D0=9F=D0=9F=D0=9F?= 

What is your system locale set to?  Is it 'ru_RU.koi8r'?  If so, try
setting it to 'ru_RU.utf8'.
