Hello Nicholas!
AA>> It stays UTF-8 going out when replying to UTF-8 messages

(BTW.. I purposely did not reflow your quote above. However, it
should be automatically limited to 79 chars including the
indent and your quote initials.)
Good question. I would have to run some tests to remind myself
what it does. But I seem to recall reading somewhere that if an
original nntp message arrives with utf-8, it will go out with
the same char-type: utf-8. The chars in the nntp message
should not change in the editor if the original arrived as utf-
8.
However, OpenXP does not render all utf-8 chars readable.
Link up with the UTF-8 (ftn) echo and see how OpenXP handles
the content there. I did a variety of UTF-8 tests there in
January 2020.
For the heck of it, here is the multi-language "Happy New Year"

NB> Are you using the Linux version? I only ask because your
NB> tearline doesn't have anything to do with 'Win', or
NB> 'Win32', or 'Windows' like mine did.
My messages should have the MAILER-ID kludge. It's Win(32).
NB> I wonder if I set this up on Linux with the exact same
NB> settings if things might be a bit different.
Matching the terminal window size with Linux to the one in
OpenXP would be a good start. Atleast you will then see any
free-flow messages full width.
