I have a problem with gnus and I can't sort it out by myself. When I get email from my friends who use Windows machines and other sorts of weird connections (maybe even email connections via mobile phones), the more exotic European characters are all mixed up. For example, the "small a with umlauts on top" -character is shown as ä (hope you are seeing this right, but that is a large A with a tilde on top followed by a euro sign). I did a bunch of searches via groups.google.com but could not figure out how to rectify this. Anyone? -- Jarmo Hurri Commercial email countermeasures included in header email address.

This is an UTF-8 representation of "small a with umlauts on top". Install (X)Emacs with MULE for unicode support. P.S. I don't know how good is MULE support in XEmacs. -- Ivan Boldyrev Is 'morning' a gerund? ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

Install (X)Emacs with MULE for unicode support. Thanks! Finding out that it was UTF-8 enabled me to locate at least one solution quickly: http://groups.google.fi/group/gnu.emacs.sources/browse_thread/thread/2ae28547e8d32f01/ebe7fffb0556b94c It's not MULE, but at least it does the job. -- Jarmo Hurri Commercial email countermeasures included in header email address.
