As far as I understandthe rules of SMTP:

The only other charset allowed is UTF8 and that only if the HOST
advertises "SMTPUTF8" in in response to "EHLO" _and_ the client says
"SMTPUTF8" after the <address> part of the SMTP "MAIL FROM" command.

SMTPUTF8 support in exim is still considered experimental, but if building
with EXPERIMENTAL_INTERNATIONAL enabled does not allow UTF8 in
responses I would consider that a bug. (not that I have any authority)
