   Hello Paul,   
      
   On Monday March 26 2012 19:53, you wrote to me:   
      
    MV>> 4" instead of "UTF-8 2". But my Golded is smart enought to   
    MV>> compensate. It ignores the level parameter and only looks at the   
    MV>> name of the encoding to determine the level.)   
      
    PQ> Could I do that same with mine?   
      
   Of course. You have the same version as I have, so no reason why it should not   
   work for you.   
      
    PQ>   Could I impose on you to drop me a   
    PQ> copy of the relevant chunk(s) of your config file?   
      
   No prob. Look at xlat.zip in your inbound, It conatains my *.chs transalation   
   tables and the relevant part of golded,cfg   
      
   Mind you my setup is for Codepage 850 as the native character set. For   
   Codepage 437 you have to modify the transalation tables.   
      
    PQ>>> The original looked great in Thunderbird but ugly in SemPoint.   
      
    MV>> So obviously sempoint can not deal with UTF-8. No suprprise, few   
    MV>> Fidonet sofware can. OTOH, allmost all internet sofware can deal   
    MV>> with it.   
      
    PQ> If I could get excited about using Thunderbird then I might do the   
    PQ> switch permanently.  OTOH, I'd like to flog my Windows+DOS Fidonet   
    PQ> software to the bitter end for as long as I can.  :)   
      
   Same here. ;-)   
      
      
   Cheers, Michiel
