My problem was that format-patch only adds MIME-Version and Content-Type headers if the commit has non-ascii characters. If I add a S-o-b only after the format-patch step I easily forget to add the needed headers. IMHO the right fix is to let send-email stop if there is no encoding related header in the mail but non-ascii characters.
