Excellent, Qermaq. Thank you. You help a lot of people by
investigating that situation. You've verified the problem I
suspected and suggested a better system, too. I'm pleased.
Another work-around I was going to suggest, for people who can't
change the font in their mailers, is to compose the text using
something else -- Notepad, a word processor, edlin -- then either cut
and paste or save as ascii and import to the mail window.
