Hi, something I've noticed with *some* email replies from Windows
users .... In place of some double spaces, I see a white question
mark in a black diamond. When viewing the source of the email, it
seems double spaces and some newlines are being replaced by
=EF=BF=BD (a hex code for the q. mark I suppose). I'm thinking that
possibly my emails appear to some Windows users with these strange
characters in them. And I'm sure there are lots of variables here
that dictate when/why this happens.
This prompts me to ask ... does anyone have general tips for
creating Mail.app emails (including email signatures) that are as
friendly as possible to all email readers (including Windows), so
'funny characters' are avoided?
Note I have Windows Friendly Attachments switched on.
Thanks for any help offered,
And a followup request is about the conditions under which filenames
are truncated when files with long names are sent as email
attachments.
Rob
