These all look valid to me both on the list and in GMail. Weird.
Well, I guess it didn't like my ISO-8859-7 in the other post then. For
some reason the original post (as I received it) had its Subject header
in UTF-8 with MIME wrapping but its text in ISO-8859-7: maybe some mail
router along the way silently translated the post (and changed the
Content-Type charset accordingly)? That would have spared it one byte
per Delta in the text (uppercase delta is 0xC4 in ISO-8859-7 but 0xCE
0x94 in UTF-8) but at the cost of six bytes in the Content-Type header
("iso-8859-7" is 6 bytes longer than "utf-8").
I suppose I should always reply to the list in UTF-8, not in the same
charset as whatever I'm replying to, which is my mailer's default if the
charset fits (with fallback to UTF-8 if it doesn't). I can change the
preferences to always reply to everything in "my preferred charset"
which I can set to UTF-8 (or maybe to Latin1, which would still fallback
to UTF-8 if anything higher than U+00FF was encountered).
Best regards,
Tony.

Eggnog is a traditional holiday drink invented by the English. Many
people wonder where the word "eggnog" comes from. The first syllable
comes from the English word "egg", meaning "egg". I don't know where
the "nog" comes from.
To make eggnog, you'll need rum, whiskey, wine gin and, if they are in
season, eggs...
