Mozilla 1.5 still has the same problem with A0 bytes, just like the
earlier version of Mozilla that I was trying out the last time this
discussion came up. It's also possible the A0 bytes are getting
corrupted somewhere along the way before the message gets to the mail
reader. I could try the latest 1.6a beta, but it probably won't do any
good. (Agent, my primary mail reader, substitutes question marks for any
characters outside the standard Windows character set.)
