'Standard character set for Outlook 2010 .msg file

I need to find out, what type of character set it is, if I save an email from outlook 2010 in non-unicode format. At saving you can choose between .msg file and unicode .msg file. Is it depending on the version (english, german, etc.)? How can I find out?

See my screenshot:

It will use the code page stored in the PR_INTERNET_CPID MAPI property. You can see it in OutlookSpy (I am its author) if you click the IMessage button. An MSG file can be opened by clicking OpenIMsgOnIStg button.
