Step 1: I write these two lines with
three test letters: � � �
(These are latin1 accented letters.)

examine it with ctrl-z, and I will
cut and paste what I find

Step 3: Here is what I find:
    Step 1: I write these two lines with
    three test letters: =E7 =E9 =E1
But the charset is set to ISO-8859-1.
What am I seeing? 7+16*(14)=231, so it's
the right hex code, but why is it showing
up like this?  I.e., why do I see these
codes rather than the glyphs I see when
I use the message viewer?

The reason for asking:
these hex codes showed up in an email I sent
to a mailing list.  (I see these codes rather
than the proper glyphs when my mail reaches
me from this list.)  So naturally I am wondering
how this can be happening.

Thanks,
Alan
