Replying to Ed's email from my TB does result in a well-formatted UTF-8 email, both in gmail and other providers. I am still curious as to why your reply changed the encoding, given your TB settings are the same as mine, unless UTF-8 is somehow broken on your machine, Basil.
Yes.... Sending this reply to your email would require (due to the signature) the use of either charset UTF-8 or big5 for the receiving side (assuming it is correctly configured) to render/display it as intended. One could potentially use a charset of GB2312 and it probably would be interpreted correctly but potentially not in the font/style the sender intends. If the receiving side does not display it correctly then any reply to it would most likely be displayed incorrectly. When it comes to TBird, checking the option "Apply the default character encoding to all incoming messages" seems to lead to more problems than it may have been attempting to solve. But, for monolingual individuals all of that could be mostly irrelevant. -- 葛斯克 愛德華 / 台北市八德路四段 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
