Hello Jeff, there's an ongoing discussion about exactly this topic right now on the German users list. We noticed problems with 2.3RC1 when an incoming mail has a wrong character encoding in its headers. In our case we had a mail where the headers said it would be charset "us-ascii", encoded 7bit, while the body contained German Umlauts. The result is that the body is cut at the first occurrence of an Umlaut. I agree with you that a incorrectly displayed mail is better than one that's not shown. But I don't know if someone thinks of changing this. Kind regards Manfred Dohmen ____________________________________________________________________ Ihre Messenger, Communities und E-Mails jetzt in einem Programm!
