Good selection of characters, but I don't recall if any of them were
previously mangled. Also I don't recall whether attachments made it
through unscathed. I think there would have been outright rioting in
the street if they didn't.
I *do* know that parts of the Georgian alphabet did get mangled, but I
distrust this webmail client to send them properly -- it is worse at
Unicode than the (old?) Listserv. Anyone care to give it a whirl? If
nobody steps up to the plate, I can send a test message from a real
email client (Opera) when I get home.
