In KMail I've set the charset to iso-8859-15. But then again, I
don't use KMail for html. My guess is, that our American friends
here (using US-ASCII or some Windows charset) won't be able to read
Scandinavian characters like Ã, à and à or even the Euro-symbol â.
Those signs will most likely produce garbage on their screens. And
to why you can see the escape-strings : if I'd embedded this post
in <html><body>this message</body></html> you wouldn't.
