Re: [Nmh-workers] UTF=8 in message bodies

Hi Ken,

• Make sure you run mhbuild ("mime" in whatnow) on a message with
UTF-8 characters, it will take care of the right magic.  Although it
always picks quoted-printable as the encoding, which I'm personally
not happy about.

Something I picked up from the list...  I don't build MIME emails for
most of the ones I write so I can get away with my ~/mail/components
file having

    MIME-Version: 1.0
    Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
    Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

amongst the headers and then just create a UTF-8-encoded drafts in vim.
That way, I avoid the quoted-printable.

If `mime' at the whatnow prompt is required then I just delete them from
the draft so they can be added by nmh.

Cheers, Ralph.
