I'll think about a FAQ. This whole Debian/Ubuntu utf-8 encoding issue has been a pain from the beginning for those of us (me) who've had to pick up the pieces after things broke. See for example the comment thread at <https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1462755> and the archived thread linked from comment #6. Also, if you're interested, see the first paragraph at <https://wiki.list.org/> about obtaining write access to the wiki if you'd like to write something. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
