Many people believe Okino is a Japanese company, but no :-) It is a Toronto Canada company. I'm using a standard, default encoding for The Bat! My message was probably posted from Agent, since it's my alternative (heavier message bearing) email program. Which registry key can I play with? Thanks for your answer.
