Scott, let's see if this works: open Icedove and create a new folder (name it "test" or "damn black diamond", at your wish...). Then copy here (do not move but copy as we don't want to mangle nor lose your e-mails) a bunch of my e-mails that show the bad character. Then right-click over that folder and select "Properties". In the first tab you will find an option for character encoding. If it is set to "utf-8" change it to "iso-8859-1" (or viceversa, if it is set to "iso-8859-1" set it to "utf-8"). Check "[x] Apply the default..." and click "Accept" or "OK". (put drums here) Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
