Re: query

[Tim Gwinn <***>]

I think it is the 7bit setting which is the culprit. I went back to a bunch
of Howard's older posts, and they all use the same OpenWave and ISO-8859-1.
The only obvious difference I see is the old posts were 8bit encoding vs
7bit in the new posts.

I'm not exactly sure where one would would toggle that, but it should be in
the email client setup/options/preferences/etc.

Regards,
Tim
