I'm not sure, but it seems safest in this case. I would prefer to set up
SpamAssassin to catch "foreign" charsets on a case-by-case basis, for
this, as I don't know much about the "windows" charsets.
BTW the definition of a "foreign" charset to SpamAssassin is as
follows:
- contains mainly non-ASCII characters (so ISO-8859-* are not
"foreign" by this defn)
- is used by spammers. So big5 is very prominent in this case, but
I'm not sure about koi8-r or many of the others...
So if anyone has spam in unusual charsets, esp. "windows-nnn", that would
be worth noting.
