True, the headers need to be legible as demanded by the protocol, back in the days when the internet only seemed to need ASCII. The body is a different matter and has almost always required some form of encoding, though this has much to do with images, etc. as it does with character pages. Still, that SMTP is still working nearly 50 years on, shows how important protocols and interoperability are: I wonder how many of the various messenger systems will still be with us in 50 years… Charlie -- Charlie Clark Kronenstr. 27a Düsseldorf D- 40217 Tel: +49-211-938-5360 Mobile: +49-178-782-6226 ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate

As the manual says: “Don’t enable this if you don’t really know what you are doing. Review your outgoing messages (⌥⌘U) and make sure both server and recipients can handle it.” When people’s replies to you are broken, that means some server cannot handle it. Your From: header arrived here UTF8-encoded even though our servers do not announce 8BITMIME or SMTPUTF8. So at the very least the MTA delivering the message to us behaved wrong.

[MlMt] R5757 is pretty buggy => I see wrong encoding
Hi, I’m using 5757 since I abandoned Beta-v2 but fight a lot of annoying little bugs. I now see that my name is screwed up like: `To: Robert M. Münch ` for many replies I get. That wasn’t the case in the past. Any idea what this could be? Since switching to R5757 I used: `defaults write com.freron.MailMate MmSMTPUTF8Enabled -bool YES` could this be the root cause?
