For emails, i usually use .txt that are saved in unicode or utf-8. But for most of my chinese texts that are not saved in unicode or utf-8, i use calibre for conversion to mobi using the specified encoding (gb18030 for simplified chinese) then i'll email it to my kindle. Much easier than sending the file to Amazon and worry it won't show up correctly.
