Hi all,
I have a multilingual mailing list. As such, there is a great demand for
non-ascii text. We mostly use western-european languages, so the character set
normally used in communication is ISO-8859-1. However, few of our
correspondents are east-european, and use ISO-8859-2. Also, many prefer to
encode their e-mail messages in UTF-8. Assuming (an assumption which is
sometimes incorrect, unfortunately), that each mail message has a correct mime
header describing its content type, is it possible to make hyper mail to
generate the coresponding HTML, e.g., <META HTTP-EQUIV="content-type"
CONTENT="text/html; charset=UTF-8"> for UTF-8 encoded messages, etc.? For
messages which do not identify their charset this may be not generated.
Thanks,
Zvi.
