Re: 7/8-bit conversion vs. bouncing

  Do we still have a disagreement here somewhere (other than a (hopefully 
now retired) misunderstanding?)?  If so, could someone explain to my 
feeble mind what it is?

No, I think we're in agreement.  (All our minds should be so feeble!)

Are somebody really insisting on bouncing 8-bit mails, which are intended
for 7-bit land? This makes me think that the whole thing is unusable.

The IETF meeting in Copenhagen concluded that we should do 8<->7 bit
conversion and this was not considered a transformation, as long as all
the information was preserved.
