Maybe what you wrote only sounds weird over here, so I apologize in advance. Obviously, I don't understand the technology. But when you switch away to another random encoding and then back to UTF-8, suddenly the message is displayed correctly. So if displaying it incorrectly is correct, then displaying it correctly must certainly be wrong? As a user I can say that what appears to be wrong with TB!'s behaviour is that it displayed the message wrong in the first place, that's what I see without knowing anything about encoding. Are you certain that there is no email client in the world that can display the message correctly *without* having to switch to another (random) encoding and back? Is this standard behaviour according to RFC? The statement "it's the sender's clients fault that you cannot see their message in TB! correctly" does sound a bit weird to my ears, but I may be misunderstanding you or the whole situation. To ease things, can I create a keyboard shortcut to switch to Chinese and back, or better yet, a filter so that makes it happen automatically?

I am certain that you do not expect any user to mess with the registry. -- Cheers, Thomas. http://thomas.fernandez.hat-gar-keine-homepage.de/ Message reply created with The Bat! 4.2.44 under Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 3 ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 5.0.12.3 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
