Yes... This is interesting. As expected, the subject line in the
message you sent me is garbage until I run UnionWay AsianSuite and set
it to Big 5; the subject then becomes good, readable Chinese.
However, if I then "Show Kludges", the subject is identified as
ISO-8859-1, in contrast to the subject header below, which correctly
identifies it as Big 5.
