The problem is when *some* posters quote my posts in UTF-8 a) declaring no encoding and keeping UTF-8 "as posted" ( ISO-8859-2 is "guessed as default" for pl.* hierarchy ) b) declare ISO-8859-2 encoding but fail to convert UTF-8 to it The standard outcome is that *what they quote* contains "bushes". > I think there's a hook for what you describe: gnus-message-setup-hook, > but there may be a more specific way for washing in particular. The right way to "evangelize" MS Outlook Express users (90%+ of the guilty lot) how to set it properly ignoring *bad default* configuration provided by Micro Soft. Sometimes I am in evangelist mood but not always :-) P.S. 1) Some web portals fail to respect properly declared encoding and "convert" UTF-8 quoted in replies to even uglier "html bushes". 2) For pl.* news hierarchy *currently* ISO-8859-2 is recommended but UTF-8 is allowed (in most of the respected FAQs). -- [pl>en Andrew] Andrzej Adam Filip : [EMAIL PROTECTED] : [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have found little that is good about human beings.
