The best way to get help (if Marco's and Andrew's advice cannot be followed) is just attach the message in question (including the full header) and ask for help here (well, it's a little off-topic......) > Does anyone know if ISO-2022-CN is being used in Chinese email clients? I strongly doubt it's being used. One of the authors of RFC 1922 wrote a couple of years ago that he had received a few emails in ISO-2022-CN, but I'm pretty sure ISO-2022-CN has since become even rarer. One possibility, though, is that some web-mail service providers may have come across RFC 1922/ISO-2022-CN and decided to implement it thinking that it's the standard for Chinese email exchange. ISO-2022-KR (for Korean) sometimes pops up in my mail box this way although it has been virtually depreciated for over a couple of years (EUC-KR has been widely used along with C-T-E of 8bit/base64/qp as necessary and hopefully UTF-8 will catch up soon) Jungshik Shin
