This was either inserted by your mailer or your mail reader; logcheck
does not specify any character encoding itself.
If it did, though, unknown-8bit would probably be the only acceptable
choice. Even if there was a way for logcheck to determine a specific
encoding for a log file (see bug #401259), it cannot possibly vouch that
whatever's in there will in fact adhere to that encoding. (This is
especially true for encodings like UTF-8.) There's lots of crap like
ssh usernames in there, and crackers/spammers are unlikely to abide by
your particular choice of encoding.
