I did a bit of experimenting and reading of elisp and found a workaround. You can put this in your .emacs file:
(prefer-coding-system 'iso-8859-2)
All messages composed with MH-E should now use that charset when sending a message. The main problem with this is that it makes the chosen coding system the default for *all* new buffers in Emacs which might be a bad thing for some people.
