It's a very difficult issue.  You can't just blindly add boilerplate
text without knowing the character set used to encode the message
part.  If you want to add characters in a certain character set, you
need to recode the entire entity using that character set, and this
may not preserve information.

Sorry, but that's just how it is.  It might be safer to add the
boilerplate text in its own MIME part, where you can specify exactly
the character set and encoding that you need.
