Re: query



The key, Steve, is that you are looking at it in a browser. The source of his post is *not* html, rather plain text, but with the encodings for quotations other than ascii characters.
His settings are:


Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

What's really interesting in his post is that, where he quotes Tim, e.g.

Rosen as "more of a Platonist" because

the quotes come through fine.
When he starts adding content, e.g.
By “more of a Platonist” I

we get the escaped characters (I'll spread them out in case your browser fixed them: & # 8220 )

The issue does reside in the email client used to compose the message, or so it would appear. The easiest fix is probably just to go download Mozilla, and use that ;-)

I'm not sure what you're referring to. Are you seeing
numbers instead of quotation marks in the emails you
write? Your emails look correct in my browser with
quotation marks around Rosen's quotes. If you're
seeing something different you might want to check
your "character encoding" under the "View" tab of your
browser. It should be set to Western.

Anybody,

How can I get my quotation marks back instead of the
numbers?
