http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/charset.html#h-5.2.2
----
..conforming user agents must observe the following priorities when
determining a document's character encoding (from highest priority to
lowest):

1. An HTTP "charset" parameter in a "Content-Type" field.
2. A META declaration with "http-equiv" set to "Content-Type" and a value
set for "charset".
3. The charset attribute set on an element that designates an external
resource.
----

SquirrelMail uses http to set charset information. Meta headers are
unreliable, because browsers will follow http headers and some webserver
packages add charset headers by default.

Are you sure that you are reporting issue of standard unmodified
SquirrelMail version? Firefox works correctly with SquirrelMail in utf-8.
