I don't know what you've done to poor old Gravity, but it's coming up
with some really strange results!Charset iso-8859-15 encoded quoted-printable. The headers identify it
correctly as such, so it should display fine.Perhaps your window manager is missing iso-8859-15, and that's causing
it to dump without decoding? If you alias it to iso-8859-1 (latin1)
it'll fix that (for most posts, including marc's).Quoted message said:

Hmmm, shouldn't you fix that? It's broken, in the manner usually
associated with Outlook.Quoted message said:

Alt + Enter, Right Arrow shows that Tony's using the same newsreader as you
(OE 6.2800.1409)Makes sense if you ask me. I've just had a happy few days Applescripting OE
to give them an "integrated CRM system", as it were, and I'm most impressed.
Although Applscript's a bugger if you're used to the predictability of
programming environments where you do what the environment wants, not what
it thinks you want. But anyway, I digress.A

That's what Tony's using, hence the quotes around "proper". The
problem is the OP was posting non-ASCII. I'm sure Agent can handle it
if I ask it to, but I always have my newsreaders and mail clients set
to text-only.Guy

This is set to text-only too.

From some ISO character set which I haven't bothered to look up (which
may be the source of the problem). Either way, I think it's posting
codes for line-ends instead of a CR/LF.Guy

That's not a euro, it's a questionmark. Your newsreader appears to
be too broken to declare a charset including euro.Quoted message said:

So it would seem.
