I can't provide an overview which clients don't support utf-8 and what 
they support instead.

But AFAIK Eudora supports only iso-8859-1. So at least if people use 
Eudora (without the converter plugin) iso-8859-1 will change their 
situation. And I guess iso-8859-1 support is quite common in older clients.
