Hi folks, struggeling with my favourite, i remarked just that people receiving email from me get no "umlaute" like ö ä ü (oe ae and ue, in german). You see in this e-mail the result: here you should now see: (ä)ae (ö)oe (ü)ue. I've tried already many things. my settings are: -Tools/Settings/e-mail-settings: same fonts as other applications -View/coding: default (tried here also ISO-8859-1, didn't help) i am sure that i just missed somewhere a detail for my swiss-german-settings. Thanks Roger
