Doesn't Linux have a decent usenet reader?

One thing that Gravity appears to choke on - or perhaps it's just a
configuration tweak - it mangled Robert's UTF-8 as above : )

Copy pasted for comparison in UTF-8:

"Forté Agent runs fine under Wine, or did through release 1.83.  I
haven't tried it with the modern releases. "

( I'm using Sylpheed, but as mail, not news )

In case that doesn't render as expected: e acute looks like a capital A
with a tilde above followed by an @ sign in the bit from your post, but
shows as expected ( e acute) in the pasted UTF-8 version from Robert's
post.

Sylpheed is set on "auto-detect" so possibly the problem is at my end, but
I rarely see this kind of weirdness even from Windows mailers, so I suspect
not ;-)
