Re: [OT] deployment issues on windows

As you might know, (but it seems you don't), even in free-as-in-freedom OS, 
such as FreeBSD (what else?), you have free-as-in-freedom Mail User Agent 
(FMUA) which works very well with HTML content. such as gmail or kmail!

Anyway I believe your problem, believe it or not!, is to do with limited 
char-set support of your mail app!
(And not with HTML)

Why do I believe that?
Even if you used mail (the command line mail application) you should be able 
to see clearly the the text part of the mail (remember, even Micros~1 Outlok 
use standart MIME mail format, which are multipart, always including a text 
part).

So maybe you should read again your favorite system documentation on 
char-set on how to upgrade the number of char-set it supports!

Beside why do I get through the pain of using inferior mail app when Outlook 
express is so good an support both format? (and encrypted email, and annoted 
email, and newsgroup, and so much more!...)
