Well, as I see current practise, all the relevant servers and clients that I see in our environment handles iso-8859-1 as the default. And I live in a very 8859-1 dependent environment. So as this is even the specified behaviour from olden times, and current practise, I ask you to keep that in the spec, possibly with some words that some very few servers/agents do not support it. There was some wording mailed earlier that has such wording. keld
