No, Ed, the sender is just writing pure English and it is coming in as pure English, too. I never said much a out the German characters being scrambled before, but the apostrophes in an English text when I reply --it is in my reply that this transformation takes place --- And it does NOT take place in my iBook with Tiger in it. That is the mystery.

About the German characters, I do have questions on those, too, but this here is pure english to english

Marta from what you are saying this looks like the sender is using a language other than English and the mail is set up for English. There must be a setting some where that needs to be set up so as to keep the mail program from substituting an English character for a non English character. Now where would that be will see what I can find out about such things.

And I just checked my iBook, it does NOT do this transformation in the replies. The trouble is totally in my new MBp with leopard in it. Simply the pitts. And everybody up there at the store shrugs their shoulders.

For a long time coming I shall not give up on my two computers with Tiger in them. I find a lot of misses in this new Leopard.
