You are right, thank you for pointing this out, it is no news message
standard. I just (three days ago) updated to Outlook Express 4.5 and it
messed up all preferences at first (not reading and converting the old ones
as expected) and I discovered it yesterday in an email that it reset my
encoding to utf-8 (there is utf-7 available as well...). It should now post
in Western European ISO encoding again...
