Quoted-printable is a _transfer encoding_, /not/ a charset. There's a difference. Where is the Euro symbol supplied in iso-8859-1/Latin-1? I don't see it. ISO-8859-1: Hex: Dec: Chr: Code: A4 164 ? 164 CURRENCY SIGN ISO-8859-15: Hex: Dec: Chr: Code: A4 164 � 8364 EURO SIGN Just because Microsoft supplies them in their ttf fonts doesn't mean it's also available in other fonts. To make *sure* everyone else sees the Euro symbol as you intented it you *have to* use a charset that contains the �, for example IS0-8859-15. -- Five exclamation marks, the sure sign of an insane mind.
