Kent asked about an issue I raised:

It seems to me that Daniel addressed this in his reply:
: If nothing else is stated, it is legal for HTML to assume the
: ISO8859-1 charset, yes....
: I don't think this is any major problem as long as the charset of the
: mail is used. And I believe it is.
It makes sense to leave this as-is for v2, imho.
