I'm using Alpine, too, and have no problems with the à or any other 
foreign character. I'm not even using UTF-8 but plain ISO-8859-1 in my 
terminal.
But it's important to set "Display Character Set" and "Unknown Character 
Set" in Alpine's settings! Otherwise you'll see '?' for all non-ASCII 
characters.
