Stop with the funky font shit!
Allison, what e-mail reader are you using? I'm using PINE, and if there
is any HTML encoding in the message, I would see it. But I don't see
anything coming from any of Marvin's postings, so I'm trying to figure FWIW, I use Outlook Express at work, and Marvin's
messages all display in a
different font (a sans-serif, very thin font) from my default mail font. So
OE at least is interpreting something in the message as HTML formatting.
But all I get is the "funky font", no other HTML features (colour changes,
bold, etc).
Which means that although Marvin should really set a correct character set,
what's really at fault (again) is Outlook. No decent mailer would go about
changing font sizes because of that.
So in order to sum things up: Marvin, set your charset - OE users, ditch OE.
