Just to demonstrate how confusing this problem can be, I've attached three screen captures (I hope they make it through the different servers) to show how that name appears to me: your original post, your second post, and your second post as quoted by George's mail client. I suppose George ma

Sure, so long as I get the last word. No you don't. 8=] If you mean that the message is stored in UTF-8 in your memory, then sure, I don't contend that. Perhaps I misunderstood you when you said about transliterating. What matters to me is how the message is encoded on the server, which was

But this one must have been transliterated, at some point. Because it's UTF8 to me. Gee, that's because I explicitly set it, as well as every next post, to be in UTF-8. Nobody is secretly transliterating anything. Can we wrap this up already? __

I looked at the headers of your message as Pan presents it to me, and I see the following: Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed; charset="UTF-8"; reply-type=original The message you replied to is UTF-8 (and this one is, as well). Check out the one with the alphabet, as well as the OP. I de

АБВГДЕЁЖЗИЙКЛМНОПРСТУФХЦЧШЩЪЫЬЭЮЯ It looks fine. Apparently it somehow got transliterated to UTF8 Cyrillic. Why no, it's just marked properly, whereas previous posts weren't: Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed; charset="koi8-r"; reply-type=original I'll stick to UTF-8, though. __

I don't know how this will look on your screen, but the word looks to me like a mess of vowels with diacritics. Did George do some hand- transcription, or did his system do some translation that my system failed to? I'm just curious what is going on. I b0rked it, sorry. Outlook Express has we

Did you post this in UTF-8 or KO18-R? Using UTF-8, it doesn't decode probably. Foiled again! But let me try another time... Администратор! ___ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
