As you can see, this results in Gnus claiming my name to be iso-8859-1 encoded in the From header, but actually the ß is two bytes. I guess it's the UTF-8 encoding of ß...

I guess it's the UTF-8 encoding of ß... How does it look in the message buffer? Is it UTF-8 or Latin-1? I see you are using CVS Emacs, does it happen in Emacs 21 as well? ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread
