RE: ASC 3D Text format (Sorry!)

I know this may earn me a few hard looks, but I've been using M$'s OE5 for
some time now, the Latin American version, with no trouble at all, either
sending or receiving.

My config (Tools > Options) say that:
- Send > Int'l config: Western European (ISO), and (yes, enabled) Use
English headings in answering a message (my translation...)
- Read > Int'l config: (No, disabled) Use default config.

In this way, I get anything in any code (my problem if I can't read it, but
at least I'll get what the sender meant me to get), and I'll always send
something most people can read.

Luck.

Gerardo
