[How] does it appear in your outbox? Do you have REPRO ON? how did it get reflected to you? And when I mail something to a mainframe, it often arrives as: charset=USASCII when it has clearly been translated to EBCDIC. If a MTA/MDA is going to perform such a conversion, it ought to adjust the MIME headers to agree. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
