   Who is gating that echo to Fidonet? And is it coming across as UTF-8 or   
   something else?   
      
   Also, I'm sure you noticed the UTF-8 glyphs in the content that is properly   
   displayed?

   I believe this was addressed in 3.20 at some point, also. So if you were   
   originally pulling it from someone who hasn't upgraded to a version that   
   supports handling UTF-8 and mime decoding, then that could be the reason also.

   Yessir! But what baffles me, is that UTF-8 is unsupported literally everywhere   
   else in OpenXP.
