    You can use the “wp_mail_charset” filter to alter the charset used in wp_mail(). The default charset is the same as that used by WP, which is generally UTF-8 already. You can verify at /wp-admin/options.php. Look for the “blog_charset” option.

    It could be some other code is altering the email charset through the same filter. To ensure your filter callback has the final say, add your filter callback with a very large priority argument in add_filter().

    Before going through any of this, are you really sure email is NOT using UTF-8 charset? Don’t judge only by inappropriate characters, view an email message’s raw content. Below all the Received: headers and To: and From: stuff and just above the actual message should be the line:
    Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"
