the tildes and others. But here, in Spain, the iso8859-1 (Latin-1) or
iso8859-15 character table that has the character of the euro is used. When I
write from synchronet the other nodes in Spain do not see my accents correctly.
So I would like to put the BBS, at least the web and the nntp server, in those
character tables.

Hi Angel !

I use thunderbird to read via nntp, and i have that issue because the
nntp server send the headers:

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=IBM437

Thunderbird does not support this encoding, then i see the '?'
characters in the mail read pane.

Also, i set the sbbs.ini MAil->DefaultCharset=IMB850 without results
