Does it also allow for a temporary change of the character set? E.g., i'm normally composing all my messages in ISO-8859-1, 8bit encoding, but would like to answer just your single mail in Russian, and hence have to modify the `charset' for this mail to KOI8-R. This would be great. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
