The charset is added to the meta-data which appears as a comment:
<!-- received="Sun Sep 12 16:54:27 1999" -->
<!-- isoreceived="19990912145427" -->
<!-- sent="Sat, 11 Sep 1999 16:40:09 -0700" -->
<!-- isosent="19990911234009" -->
<!-- name="..." -->
<!-- email="..." -->
<!-- subject="Re: Verne's sentence" -->
<!-- id="199909112340.QAA07477@..." -->
<!-- charset="utf-8" -->
<!-- inreplyto="Verne's sentence" -->
<!-- expires="-1" -->
However, the HTML Head is generated using a template supplied by me, and there
is no token I can use to substitute the charset: I would like to have something
like %c (similar to %s -- subject of message) which I can use in the header as
<META HTTP-EQUIV="content-type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=%c">, which will be
replaced by UTF-8 etc. (or ISO-8859-1 if there is none), or even better
something like %C (similar to %S -- the subject meta tag) which will be the
whole meta tag above, or empty if there is none.
Best,
Zvi.
