Hiro, I like your music :-) but I don't like mailservers, which do change things. I said "usually", and I know that there are some old boxes, which do sh*t like that, but actually I didn't had such a thing since years anymore. There is (was) one popular Japanese mail-client, which was never sending encoding information. And that thing was to my experience most often the source of such troublesome mails.
