Re: Strange problem causing question marks in emails
Hi, thanks again for replying, Are your outgoing messages that exhibit this behaviour replies rather than new messages? If so, is the problem text your own or quoted from the message you reply to? The problem isnt really from when i reply to an email. it occurs either when i save a msg as draft, or save it in my outbox. Upon opening it again to edit it or send it out, the questions marks are there. so i cant use the save email option anymore, i have to save the text in ms word and paste it out again in anew email. it also happens when ive already sent out an email and want to send the same email to someone else. in outlook express there used to be a resend option. but in the bat! i go to sent mail, open the email, and redirect it. that creates the question marks too. now ive started to copy the text of the sent email into a new email and that seems to work, but i still cant use redirect or forward without question marks appearing. Odd. If you re-send exactly the same message with no modification (copy from sent to outbox, perhaps) does that go astray too? exactly the same one, no changes, and it wont make it through. i know its not getting through because it doesnt show up on the archives of the list on the web, and it also doesnt go out to individual recipients on the list. ive done virus checks on the computer too and nothings turned up. please help! i want to be able to save msgs in my outbox and have the question marks disappear. -- Current version is 3.95.06 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

It was just a thought. I believe there are folks far more knowledgeable on the subject subscribed to this list.

Get this very rarely. Either question marks or squares. Tends to be mailing list messages from people who also have people they correspond with in languages that use a different alphabet. Fiddling with character sets generally resolves for me. some of my Bat! emails are also not making it through.

Strange problem causing question marks in emails
Hi, I have been having problems sending emails where question marks appear replacing things like periods, quotation marks, etc. The text of the email can appear fine from my end when i send it out, but on the recieving end the question marks are there. Also, when i try and redirect an email that ive already sent, it brings up the question marks on my end before sending it out. This doesnt happen with every email in my sent mail folder, but i cant tell what is different about the ones where the question marks are caused. Not sure if this is related, by some of my Bat! emails are also not making it through. They register as sent in my sent mail folder, but do not get make it to where theyre supposed to be going. usman Current version is 3.95.06 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
