   Hello Nicholas,   
      
   orig.message to echo UTF-8 on 09 Mar 25  21:23:00   
    >> That's the thing that I do to keep all messages on my node in UTF-8...   
    >> without stable success though.   
    NB> What is unstable about it, if you don't mind me asking?   
      
   Not all sysops use correct CHRS kludge.   
   Moreover, there is some messages with two different charset (some SYNCHRO   
   users) - message itself in UTF-8, but tearline uses CP437-encoded   
   pseudographics.   
      
    >> or set the one and only encoding. Second way was chosen.   
    NB> Do you still translate all incoming mails to UTF-8 using iconv so they're   
    NB> readable?   
      
   Yes. But no external iconv, pyhton internal decode/encode.   
      
    >> May be it is duty of ZC, to drop invalid segment, and not "help" sysop   
    >> to publish errors, replacing them with any mark.   
    NB> I would love to see those "?" entries in DAILYUTF as "🖕" instead. At   
   least   
    NB> then it wouldn't cause errors. :)
