[Evolution] Character encoding in 1.4.x

[Mike Gifford <mike openconcept ca>]

Hello,

I've received notices from a couple people know that my messages aren't
readable.  One person thought it was greek another croatian.

Most recently it was this message that a client reported:

> This message uses a character set that is not supported by the
> Internet Service.  To view the original message content,  open the
> attached message. If the text doesn't display correctly, save the
> attachment to disk, and then open it using a viewer that can display
> the original character set. 

I only use text messages, so I found this very confusing.  My default
character set was set to Western European (which I figured would be fine
for English).  What should it be for English?  I've switched it to UTF-8
as that seems to be the default.

I'm using Evolution 1.4.4

I'm starting to get worried that a whole wack of emails that I've sent
might be undecipherable by the folks on the other end.


Mike
