Why can't Powermail get the extended ASCII chars right every time when importing messages?
I tried with Entourage 2001 mailboxes that had been collected over the net and the chars looked right and import was swift and easy. But when I try and import directly from Emailer or trough OE 4.5 first, the chars all look wrong again. So I tried and moved the OE 4.5 messages to OE 5.02 (where they looke dright again, hmmmm) and then to Entourage 2001 (I couldn't see any direct ways to read Emailer even though the online help stated it should be possible). The chars look right all the way until I put them on the desktop by exporting from Entourage. Why would one set of chars look right in several MS email apps beside OE 4.5 and then on export they will look bad again. I assume the data is the same internally and the apps themselves decide what to display according to a standard? So isn't everyone adher to the same standard or at least CTM acknowledge the standard the imported mail have and change the data or the display accordingly so that we can enjoy trouble free importing and not feel we are wasting our very lifes when we try and switch email application? Is it really that hard?
