If you copy from nodelist        SD> INVALID string with BINARY AS IS, it obviously makes your message        SD> invalid too. I was to forcibly mark your message as CP437 to read it,        SD> becouse trying to decode it as UTF-8 ends with error.              Hmm.. I see your point.              The program I wrote many years ago only detects the first appearance of a non       valid utf8 sequence in a line. It ignores any other invalid sequences in the       same line. So only the first occurence is replaced by a question mark, the       rest is copied as is.              I think I have found a work around.                     Cheers, Michiel              --- GoldED+/W32-MSVC 1.1.5-b20170303        * Origin: Nieuw Schnøørd (2:280/5555)       SEEN-BY: 4/0 90/0 105/81 106/201 128/187 153/7715 154/10 110 203/0       SEEN-BY: 218/700 221/6 226/30 227/114 229/110 114 317 426 428 470       SEEN-BY: 229/700 705 240/5832 280/464 5555 291/111 292/789 301/1 310/31       SEEN-BY: 320/219 341/66 234 460/58 900/0 902/0 26 905/0 5019/40 5020/1042       SEEN-BY: 5075/35       PATH: 280/5555 341/66 902/26 229/426           |
