However, some programs do (unless specifically configured not to do so). E.g. alpine (pine) -- which is a classical Unix-shell mail program does that. And this week, I finally discovered the option that disables that: downgrade-multipart-to-text
well pine is certainly an unexpected co-conspirator in the convert-to-multipart-when-Unicode-is-encountered scheme, i used pine for a while, but it was in the pre-Unicode days
That description made me a bit nostalgic. I realized that I haven't used "Usenet" (not via Google-groups interface) for about 10 years...
nostalgic, yes; i was a heavy user of Usenet 1978-82, and then again something like 87-99; bought and sold a fair amount of stuff, including a Canon 20mm lens, via Usenet, which was among other things the proto-craigslist
It's funny that people are still actively using those Usenet (Google) groups. And here is a recent thread discussing Pentax K1 there: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/rec.photo.digital/nHwuriadq7Q
i think you can still read them via the true Usenet protocols, though Google Groups is more convenient
takes me back … that thread was not really about the K-1 -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
