As your posting does not declare a charset, it depends on the default charset people choose for their newsreader (ISO-8859-1 and ISO-8859-15 display it the right way). Same applies to your From: line. You should enable MIME Encoding and 7-bit-MIME-headers in your newsreader to ensure everybody displays your posting in the same charset - as long as his newsreader understands it. Michael
