I have a client who is receiving messages from a Mailman list I run that aren't showing up as expected. The list is supposed to be converting to plain text and this works fine for me (I use Thunderbird). My client on the other hand was getting the messages with a non-plain text font. She uses Outlook. After much fumbling around I noticed that the encoding of these messages are reported as Central European by Outlook. If I manually change the encoding on these messages to West European the messages look as I would expect.
I cannot figure out why these messages are showing up with Central European encoding. All of the settings in Outlook are set to what I would expect for a US user. I can't find anything that would point to Outlook converting the message to Central European encoding. The same message received by me in Thunderbird show up correctly with Western encoding. She is also receiving messages from other sources and they are showing up with the correct plain text font as set in Outlook. In seems that she is only having problems with messages from my Mailman server. Does anybody have any guesses as to what might be happening?
