No, I don't want to alter my language because of an impotent software. It is inadmissible in year 2020 to 
stick to an 8-bit character encoding, whatever that encoding is. Or perhaps GIMP is supposed to be installed 
on Windows 95/98/ME too ?

header of your message, among other things its states:

us-ascii ? That is 7-bit. You cannot write _correctly_ in *any* non-English language by using this 
Yahoo-encoding.
