Even on what is considered a "crappy" reader, OE, it
works fineAlt + 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

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

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

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:
