No, no. ß is a non-ASCII character, and Eli was talking about this character appearing _literally_ in the From header. I think. It's been some time ago... So, for the body we have the Content-type header which can specify the charset used. But what if there's a non-ASCII character in the _header_? What charset should we assume there? Does Gnus ever produce non-ASCII characters in the headers? kai -- I like BOTH kinds of music.
