Well, so it is! Personally I think it should not be posted. I don't like seeing the flame wars archived. Anyway, back to the problem at hand. Outlook seems to have some kind of magic pixie-dust that correctly encodes Hanzi. If I send an email from Outlook (in Chinese), I can read it correctly (in Chinese) in the webmail client. If I then forward that message from the webmail client (which still looks okay) back to Outlook, Outlook displays it as junk! Driving me crazy. I tried a suggestion of Ken Wong's (from the "Chinese webpages encoding" thread on non-technical), but I still have the same unsatisfactory behaviour: Hanzi, sent from webmail while the browser is encoding in UTF-8, appears in Outlook as: 亲爱的王琳: Etc... In other character sets the same line appears as: Ç×°®µÄÍõÁÕ£º Help! /src
