accented characters-
I didn't.
Maybe it's the settings, as I'm using Outlook 98
here's an excerpt of the original message -
Does "Ren=E9 Desch=EAnes" spell his name "Rene", or is=20
it "Ren=E9", and he just gave up on the accented "e"=20
when using e-mail? =20
And, how about his family name? Is there supposed to=20
be a circumflex over the middle "e"?
I don't know. I just saw "?" question marks where=20
several characters were supposed to be.
I see "equal sign"20 at the end of each line, etc...
ugh
