We have just tested on yahoo and gmail. Gmail works fine and yahoo is not and that depends on the mail agent you use, this is how the mail agent interprets these symbols.
Because you test it on your own, go to your ow_base_mail table when you send those mails or notifications you'll see that these characters are displayed properly.

Solution:
In database table ow_base_mail cange (subject, textContent,.....) encoding from "utf8_general_ci" to (in my case) utf8_slovak_ci.
Thank you ross...

I found a solution that worked for me.
I changed the line 56 in the file /ow_libraries/php_mailer/class.phpmailer.php to:
public $CharSet = 'utf-8';
I think that better don't change table ow_base_mail; see this:

Guys, you should not make changes in the default class.phpmailer.php file. If you want to redefine the default charset you should add the following string
$mailer->CharSet = "utf-8";
into the /ow_system_plugins/base/bol/mail_service.php file
on line 123 before return $mailer; string.
$mailer->CharSet = "utf-8";
into the /ow_system_plugins/base/bol/mail_service.php file
on line 123 before return $mailer; string.
