Thanks for the test case. I know very little about coding issues, but
if setting coding-system-for-write is the correct fix, I think it
should be done in a manner similar to the following, since saving an
rmail file with just "C-x C-s" should work.

*** rmail.el   6 Oct 2009 06:40:40 -0000  1.554
--- rmail.el   13 Oct 2009 01:17:20 -0000
