You obviously skipped notice of the UA string in my email: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (OS/2; Warp 4.5; rv:9.0.1) Gecko/20111221 SeaMonkey/2.6 It doesn't matter what is your agent. Even in pre utf-8 times mail agent that forced users to switch trough few code pages to find right one couldn't be considered well designed.
Ummmm, could be just a bit of an overstatement here, Rajko :-) . Thunderbird, which is now at version 10, gives one the choice of using any number of character sets, including ISO 8859-1 - and I don't think that you could argue that Thunderbird is not "well designed" :-) .
BTW, SM Mail here is using the default SeaMonkey charset: Western (iso-8859-1?; not utf-8), which normally is suitable for English language mailing lists ... UTF-8 is used for English too, and with Linux it is default,
Is it really the default? I didn't know. There are at least 2 people posting here - and one of them I believe is an openSUSE employee using their internal mail system :-) - who don't use UTF-8.
so Warp 4 version of SeaMonkey is not suitable even for English mail lists as it has buggy handling of "Content-Type:" field. Which is not a big deal if user comes on idea to check encoding before posting complaint.
Idea to follow new development, even on distance of few versions, is not that bad.
