Received an email today from a US government agency that is encoded with:

...

Reset Password
Dear <user>,
Click on the link below to reset your password.
Reset Password
This link will expire in 24 hours.

THIS IS AN AUTOMATIC SYSTEM GENERATED EMAIL. PLEASE DO NOT RESPOND TO
THIS MESSAGE.

(No link actually appears in the Opera)
I would take one look at that and flag it as junk; it looks like the
last five phishing attempts that crossed my desk. Do you have any reason
to believe it's legit and worth your time?

Actually it's not junk/phishing at all - it's a valid email from
usps.gov and is a response to my request to reset a password.



Why should this gov ... use utf16 ? Why not utf32 to be sure that we cannot read their mail ? !!! :-)

Normally it would be better to encode such  a mail in pure text usascii ...
