 works now (but didn't before as you had reported).
 
 I don't know what else could be wrong... the strings are passed around
 as UTF8 and when we create a widget we use the e_utf8_<widget name
 here> wrapper functions.

+I'm sure you've tested with latin1 characters only (i.e. chars of iso8859-1).
+I tested with russian.
+The string gets converted to "__" if it's an invalid utf8 sequence.
+Are you sure you don't convert utf8 string to locale's charset and then treat
+it as utf8 and try to convert to locale's charset again? Though if that
+was true, any non-ascii chars would be converted to "_", not only
+non-latin1..
+In which file and function the From: dropdown is filled? I may try to
+look at it.
