Gary, your latest message still has the =C2- after each sentence.
I'll reproduce it below, maybe you can see them too.

I changed the formatting on my output. =C2-Does it still show weird char
acters?
I've had a few recipients of my emails say the output it weird. =C2-I'm
not sure what causes it. =C2-
Let me know if they are still there. =C2-I'll try another format for the
output if that doesn't work.

Do you speak any other dead languages??? ;-)
Go with Western (ISO 8859-1) and see if that helps.

Guilty. Sorry, I've been a little overloaded this week.
I only use Microsoft products for email. Not because I like them, but that's
what the boss provides.
What the user sees is a combination of how the sender formats the mail, and
how the receiver's email program renders it. You can't do much about the
readout. For MS Outlook Express, I've posted a blow-by-blow description of
how to change the settings here:
http://newlangsyne.com/etc/encoding.pdf
It includes screen shots.
Linn posted a link with instructions for Thunderbird.
If you use Vista, my condolences. What used to be Outlook Express, is now
called Windows Mail or something similar. My link will get you through that
one.
MS-Outlook is similar:
Tools >> Options >> Mail Format
Select "Plain Text" from the three choices in the Message Format area
If you use something else, I don't know what to say. Somewhere there is a
menu that leads you to setup options. Find it, and adjust the MIME encoding.
* * * Character set has nothing to do with this. * * *

You can control the "frames" that you add, but the other ones were put there
before you got involved. Follow the same steps you used to find your
character encoding (several emails in the past two days). On the same
dialogue where you change character encoding, you should find an option to
"Indent message on reply"
or words to that effect. For plain text, that refers to the carets you see
in the three lines above. For "rich text" or HTML, the indent is some
graphic device like those "frames" - or, usually, a long line to the left of
the quoted text.
You can get rid of the previous marks if you want to tweak the HTML in your
outgoing message. Edit the source code and remove the <BLOCKQUOTE> tags. If
that sentence didn't make sense to you, it's better to grin and bear it. I'm
not trying to be smug, just saying it's a real pain in the butt.

For what it's worth, I subscribe to the Digest version of the list too. I
agree with the previous message, from a few days ago, that postings which
contain a long thread of previous messages and replies make reading the dig
est pretty much impossible, so I appreciate it when folks don't send pages
of extraneous stuff. Messages with a little history tacked on aren't a big
deal, but sometimes it can be pages and pages and tens of pages of old repl
ies, and the whole digest can be a hundred pages long.
Gary, for some reason, your messages come through strangely. After each s
entence, for example,=2 0it always says =22=C2-.=22 So a long mail is a series
of sentences, with =C2- after each one. I don't get that from anyone else's
messages posted to the list, so it seems to be something in the way your e
mail software is configured. (Linn's messages, for example, come through wi
thout any strangeness.)
I've gotten used to reading around the strange formatting, so it's not a
huge problem for me, but since you asked, I thought I'd let you know.

Gary's last message came in fine over my Google gmail system. No special
characters. Sounds like an issue with the receiving email client. Suggest
you try using Gmail for your email. You can set up a free account and get
all of your email coming to the one Gmail client. The email will be tagged
with the appropriate email account (I have 5 different accounts coming to
Gmail). Nice thing is you can access it from any computer with web access
and the storage capacity for email is enormous.
Cheers!

Gary, It looks OK to me. However, it always did!!! :-D
The problem could be a combination of what you sent and how it was
received by those with the mime problem. I have received emails before
with the 'weird stuff', but not from you.
