Try:
                                                                                                        
LC_CTYPE=ca_ES.ISO8859-15 more mail.test
                                                                                                        
It works  for me, the  accentuated chars show  up in xterm...  could you
dump the result  of « env »  to check your settings?  BTW  you can check
whether a given locale is available by looking at /usr/share/locale.

Also, when modifying login.conf, don't forget to logout completely from
X *and* console.
                                                                                                        
Cheers,
