Until recently, I was using Windoze Telnet. My ISP suddenly decided to

PUTTY is pretty good, but it has a few bizarre idosyncracies, such as its
non-standard handling of cut and paste.
I use Outhouse quite a bit at work, and don't like it.

It was caused by the unicode character used as an
apostrophe in the
"visitor's center" part of the subject line (I used a standard apostrophe
in my example here). My guess is it happened from cutting and pasting part
of the subject line from a website?
Ah HA! I missed that one when I was looking for what had triggered the
corruption.
(I am
currently reading this on PINE in a unix shell account - am I
being pressured into using Outhouse?)
I'm using Alpine and it apparently
handled it since I never even noticed
until it was brought up. I do purposefully run a UTF-8 capable terminal
emulator though.
