Re: codepage setup (I think)

I'm actually using mh-rmail.* Is there anything generic and
mode-independent I can do to fix the viewing of a buffer containing
these characters?  Something I can do in an mh buffer?  (An ftp'd file
could have them too, I imagine.)

*I tend to use mh-rmail for my inbox and gnus for news and
procmail-refiled, lower priority mail
