Er, common sense would be not using an email client that runs
'payloads' in email messages. I would love to hear of a real-world
scenario where an automatic email macro would be used for
non-malicious purposes. My native language cannot be encoded in 7-bit,
and yet email macros _can_ be 7-bit, so I don't see the advantage to
using 7-bit at all.

Why ISO-8859-15 at all? Has it some advantage over UTF-8?

This is very common and becoming more so. Twayne should be aware of this.

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
