I get occasional email in Greek and imail makes a real hash of
displaying this. I expected this after following the discussion on
utf-8 sequences before. My question is is there a way to save this
to read in another editor? If I forward the message it can be read
OK, but not if saved. Does the forward just bypass edwin altogether
using the message on the server and that's why it works?
How are you saving it and how are you reading it? If you write the
message body with `w', you should get a plain text file with exactly
the encoding the message sender specified. Of course, the text editor
with which you open it will have to guess the encoding correctly since
plain text files have no metadata.
