First, note that I post this from my gmail account as I can't access
my  altern account: "connected to server" appears in the status bar,
but the login page doesn't load. Just another of the numerous problems
I encounter.

I was the original poster for this thread, it's, as far as I know, the
only message using this charset, and I never wrote the reply header I
have for this *one* message. I certainly hope mail transport agent
don't rewrite reply headers :)

One thing I thought might be of interest. It often takes 30-40 seconds
before the sent message is copied to the sent folder. Sometimes,
though rarely, a message saying ~ "Your message could not be copied to
the sent folder" appears.

Thanks for your answer!
