Discarding the cache fixed all subject lines but one. This is a message in utf-8, which I put in the file octal_subject_message at http://www.ime.usp.br/~yoshi/TMP/VM/ I've tried looking at this message with Emacs/VM with default settings, with basically the same result. The behaviour in my two emacses is a little different, though: one of them shows octal code and the other shows the corresponding iso-8895-1 characters. Thanks and best, Yoshi > Cheers, > Uday
