I _did_ send a reply to your previous message, and it appeared on the list. However, you seem to have missed it somehow, so here you have it again, and I'm also copying it to your private adddress: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- David wrote: DMD> Because I send e-mail messages containing Russian/Cyrillic text, DMD> any e-mail client upon which I decide must support Cyrillic text.

Well, I would consider thge following as a possible solution. Save your signature file as non-Unicode Windows Cyrillic. Use some (re-)encoding software to make it KOI-8. Use %COOKIE="C:\pushkin-signature-your-plain-non-unicode-koi8-r.txt" :). I personally would recommend Decode by Boris Berdichevskiy, http://www.borisba.com/~borisba/decode21.zip (that page is unfortunately Russian only, but the program interface is in English.) I can send you the latest version by personal e-mail if you wish. This software is free. ZIP archive, something about 250 KB. Doesn't need installation; unpack it, and you're done. I sincerely recommending his software to everybody Cyrillic-(and other-) encodings-challenged. (For the record, I am in no way associated with its author.)
