No ... because the sender tells the receiver HOW it was set up, so the
receiver can accomodate that !

He should ... naturally it depends on the program.

I don't use Insight, but IMHO Michael has written something that Insight

I'm sure others using Insight will help you ...
What charset does the spanish sender use ??
IMHO youre test message had the wrong charset set up.
