i tried that but type would change in size and i had to squint or
lean
back to read messages, along with stretching page sides. after going
thru a lot of trouble, i have *all* settings to utf-8 and do best i
can to figure out what crude is.
And that's your problem, the only characters that are compatible with
UTF-8, are the US-ASCII ones. After that (character 127), there's
differences. You have to use the correct encoding.
If you're seeing changes in fonts depending on the encoding used, have a
play with your client's font preferences. You might have to manually
select font families for different encodings (named after localities,
rather than listed as ISO-8859-x specifications, in Thunderbird). You
probably want to untick the option to allow messages to use other fonts.
Fonts issues are one thing I really dislike about Firefox and
Thunderbird, they've convoluted it all to hell, and use *pixel* sizes in
a disastrous fashion.
