If someone posts the characters Left Double Quotation Mark “ or Right
Double Quotation Mark ” without any mime headers to indicate the
encoding, Seamonkey seems to manage to display them anyway, whereas Gnus
displays \223 \224. How is Seamonkey managing to find out what these
codes mean? and how can I find out what character encoding it has chosen
to use?
Can Seamonkey change encodings in the middle of an article? For example
if I use Greek Drachma Sign 𐅻 will that appear?
I should say that it doesn't seem to be using the default of
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO/IEC_8859-1 because 224 represents à on
that system.
I guess it is because browsers generally default to Windows-1252 (see
the table in the last point 8):
