Well, thought I was conservative, obviously I lag... ;) Set your MIME features on (most mail systems 1998 can handle that), and you can use almost whatever strange characters you want... (roast moose, carrots and gravy, dammit) After all, what is a chile-head without Spanish... Kristofer /NOT starting another non-chile thread --------------------------- Use MIME features for Internet and local mail MIME is an an Internet standard that allows mailers on different systems to exchange binary data and messages using International characters. If you check this control, WinPMail will use MIME encodings to represent accented and special characters, and to package attachments so that other MIME- compatible mail systems can read and convert them. MIME is a very powerful standard, and the only time you should not check this control is if you believe your correspondent may not be using a MIME- compatible mail system. /Snipped from Pegasus help file/ -------------------------------------
