Hello,

I had similar problems communicating between my work machine (Outlook
98) and home (Linux).  I changed my character set at home from US-ASCII

Check out the errata at www.applix.com.  I think there is something
about charsets and other email issues there.  There are downloadable
patches there for a bunch of applixware stuff; like updated import
