SquirrelMail displays foreign character sets as html entities. That's theway decoding works in SquirrelMail. It allows to display foreigncharacters correctly.

Yes. But having unsupported characters in html form does not violate RFC2046. HTML is defined in W3.org specifications and other rfc standards. Itis not defined in rfc2046. MIME standards are violated only when yousubmit compose form in IE.
You don't like SquirrelMail defaults and are trying to force other defaultvalue without realizing that forcing other value does not fix the issue.You still can write Russian, Arabic or Chinese in ISO-8859-2 form.
