When you generate your XML reply, why not encode any characters whose
values are 127 or higher into numberic character references to their
Unicode code points -- e.g. ⸐ or whatever?

Then you don't need iconv.

Oops, too late, I'd already read the mail before I got to that.

If it's confidential you should NOT be posting it to a
public mailing list.  Get yourself a non-work email account if
you can't disable the stupid disclaimer.  Thanks!
