Actually 2) _does_ work, except for notify.test = true. Which is
why I got even more confused when testing ;-)

Seems

[ui]
fallbackencoding = iso-8859-7

is what you want.

Probably doesn't have an effect for notify, only for web.

hehe

Could you try with ui.fallbackencoding = iso-8859-7 in
<repo>/.hg/hgrc ? I get notifications in iso-8859-7 of your repo
with that setting -- no need to set email.charsets even, because
ui.fallbackencoding changes util._fallbackencoding and is
automatically in email.charsets.

It seems that I only muddled up only the docs, and
ui.fallbackencoding is what you need exactly what it is meant
for. 

Additionally notify should behave similar to patchbomb for its
test mode, where no conversion takes place.
