Yes, it is from received patches for Vim. Unix users are receiving the same mail and not having a problem. Thanks for your reply. -- Best regards, Bill TB!

Is this in received mail? I had a similar problem in Agent under Widows, and very occasionally under Claws in Linux. I think it is something to do with the sender having a mangled mail client; and usually happens in Outlook Xpress, but please correct me if wrong? -- John Phillips *** Confidentiality, Privilege Notice, and Warning *** This e-mail is intended only to be read or used by the addressee.

Problem with Certain Characters in Mail
Hello TB User Discussion List, I'm having problems with mail containing characters outside the range of decimal 32-127. I try to capture the mail by executing my editor, gVim, with %1 as the file argument. I also tried exporting to a "Unix Mailbox" and then editing that file. Both cases have character translations - for example I see several "=20" sequences which are not in the sent mail. Other users are able to read these mails without problems. One such user wrote: > At least for mutt, you can perform a "decoding save" via C and the > resulting file will be fine.

Does anyone know how to do this with The Bat!? -- Best regards, Bill TB!
