I do the same       here except that after replying I convert them back to the supported 8-bit       character set, cp866 in this case. To be honest utf-8 for all would be best       especially when given bogus information in so-called ftn standards. Simply       shocking methinks.               NB> Keep up the good fight! :)              For sure. Someone has to be on the side of what is right and proper. :-)              Het leven is goed,       Maurice               o- -o o- -o       /) (\ /) (\       ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^       ...
