I have verified that Emacs 22.2 and 23.1 have built-in support for Windows-1252 and VM invokes it out of the box. No change of settings needed. So the problem reported by the original poster shouldn't arise. It must be that he/she is using some other version of Emacs. In any case, the answer to his question "VM should simply be told to ignore said encoding," is what we have given earlier. By putting 'windows-1252 in vm-mime-default-face-charsets, VM ignores the encoding.

Status in VM (View Mail) for Emacs: In Progress Status in “vm” package in Debian: Fix Released Bug description: Package: vm Version: 8.0.12 Severity: wishlist It appears that one of the OS X email apps, and/or possibly other Windows mailers, insist on adding a 'something-or-other-1252' encoding to messages. When that happens, VM refuses to show me the message body. Editing the message and manuall removing the encoding flag is all it takes. It is silly that I have to do that by hand -- VM should simply be told to ignore said encoding. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~vm Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~vm More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
