Stan and all, I compared your headers to mine and I see that you are sending in 8 bit and I'm sending in 7 bit ascii. You might then want to check to see what your encoding is in text settings in options in the send tab. it should be the first text settings button you come to. If you are sending in html you will want to check the first html group. To do this, go to options with the oe window open, go to the send tab, tab to text or html settings, press the space bar and set format to mime, check that encoding is set to none and that allow 8 bit characters in headings is not checked. Also, click the international settings button and make sure it is set to western european and windows.
