Must be your machine, not the list server. It works fine for Dwight

charset override set anywhere.

TF I think I got the correct word isolated above. The cursor goes

ECشكرا

OK, I have one o too many. This is the problem with Arabic,
sometimes the vowels are written, sometimes not. However, your last
letter (the left-most one) looks wrong to me. The two little lines
over the alif are missing, so it's shokra instead of shokran. Please
ask her again.

TF ขอบคุฌครับ!

 The last line is Thai. All three - English, Arabic, Thai - display
 correctly in my PTV. Provided that my Arabic spelling is correct,
 though. (My Thai spelling is indeed correct.)

EC I see very well Arabic and Thai. English? How does this look like?

You are right. I mean of course Latin script. But then, with English
spelling. ;-)

No idea where to look for that. However, my outgoing messages for this
account are sent using a local SMTP server and the copy in the sent
list of that app also says


 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Surely that suggests it's not my machine that is changing it?

In that case, it looks like your SMTP server does that. I would find
that strange.

It would be.

I tried sending the message to myself and the character set did not
change.

I wonder what will happen if I send one to the list and cc myself.

I will give up trying to work out what happened to the character set
of mid:1496799133.20090225192...@my_localhost because I cannot
work out how to reproduce it consistently.

My  mid:747229546.20090226183...@my_localhost came
back via the list still in utf-8 but
mid:1854458029.20090226185...@my_localhost came back changed to
us-ascii.



mid:908317301.20090227222...@my_localhost in my sentbox has
charset=iso-8859-15
but the copy I received via the list has
charset=us-ascii

I am going a bit off-topic for the thread.
