Very cool - I'd been looking for an 'Outlook sucks' page, but couldn't find one.

There is another way:

messages with headers like this:

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=unknown-8bit
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=X-UNKNOWN

, even if solely iso 8859-1 characters will give 

'This message uses a character set that is not supported by the 
Internet Service.  To view the original message content,  open the 
attached message. If the text doesn't display correctly, save the 
attachment to disk, and then open it using a viewer that can display 
the original character set.'

Most messages like this seem to come from Pine.

PS. Check my mail headers :-D.
