User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:20.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/20.0 SeaMonkey/2.17.1
Build ID: 20130410210803

Steps to reproduce:

Got a mail in HTML AND UTF-8 coding.
In the View menu at 'Message Body As' the option 'Original HTML' is selected.


Actual results:

The non-ascii characters are displayed as two bytes. (See attached snapshot: Screenshot-SeaMonkey-OriginalHTML.png)


Expected results:

The non-ascii characters should be displayed as one characters with accents, which happens with the option 'Simple HTML', though the formatting (size, colour etc.) of the text has gone. (See attached snapshot: Screenshot-SeaMonkey-SimpleHTML.png)

The problem appeared with 2.17. Before it worked well.

The bug has also a side-effect: if the mail is also encrypted (with PGP) and trying to display it as 'Simple HTML', enigmail doesn't starts to decrypt it. So now I have to switch there and back. :-(
