Hello Paul,   
      
   On Sunday March 25 2012 20:38, you wrote to me:

   It has to do with the fact that his message displays a UTF-8 CHRS kludge and   
   that my golded is configured to treat such a message as encoded in UTF-8. My   
   native code page is 850 and so Golded translates in code page 850 before   
   sending the text to the screen.   
      
   (Actually his CHRs kludge was wrong, it should have been "UTF-8 4" instead of   
   "UTF-8 2". But my Golded is smart enought to compensate. It ignores the level   
   parameter and only looks at the name of the encoding to determine the level.)

   So obviously sempoint can not deal with UTF-8. No suprprise, few Fidonet   
   sofware can. OTOH, allmost all internet sofware can deal with it.

   The follow up did not look good either here. Until I manually switched to   
   UTF-8.

   Looks good.
