Give it a try. My Chinese keyboard works like a US keyboard when I switch the OS to English. I, too, read that crtl-alt should imitate AltGR, but it doesn't. My only way to produce the euro symbol is by using alt-0128 (NumPad). As for a list of codes (like 0128 for the euro symbol), apart from the charset application in Windows (Start / Run / charset), I have an ASCII table printed out and taped to the wall near my screen.

I am no expert in this, so if I am wrong anywhere, I hope someone jumps in to correct me. The log entries are found in TB logs when using either "Regular" connection and SMTP authentication or "Secure to Regular Port" (STARTTLS) connection and SMTP Authentication. You should not have to resend the mail; it should still be delivered to the server. There was some discussion a while back (and hopefully someone will jump in with some info here) where TB was trying to authenticate before STARTTLS and that was creating an error. I thought I saw where it was supposed to be fixed in a new release. I didn't really pay much attention because I use TLS exclusively. I tested it on my machine and I get the same log entries as you do when using either of the above combinations. The error does not require that I resend the mail. I did capture the packets, but it does not seem to me that TB is sending a plain authentication. Of course, I have been known to be wrong. If I use "Regular" connection, I don't get the error when MD5 is available. I can't test "Secure to Regular Port" with MD5 because I don't have access to a server that does that. Sorry I can't tell you more, but this is about the extent of my knowledge. A packet sniffer (protocol analyzer) would get you the data you want to see. There are many of them out there. I use a couple of commercial ones, but Ethereal is one of the best and is free. www.ethereal.com.

All the Windows "main" fonts (arial, TNR, etc.) now have euro symbols, but you may need to update the fonts on your system to get that symbol. IIRC, you can get the update fonts from the Windows Update site. That said, I didn't tell the full story. AltGr+4 gives the euro symbol on my machine, but some need AltGr+e or another combination.

I believe that depends on at least three different things: the keyboard layout, the used font, and the encoding. For example, the mentioned "Courier New" charset in "Windows/Western" encoding has the Euro symbol at offset 0x80 (hex). You can get the character by pressing (and holding) ALT, then typing (on the numeric pad, thats important) "0128". However, both the DOS/USA and DOS/Western encoding of the same charset don't have the Euro symbol at that offset. But - and I think thats one of the rare benefits of Windows :) you can still reach it with ALT+0128. -- Best regards, Alexander (http://www.neurowerx.de) Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes.
