[B-Greek] Unicode text-encoding enabled?

Hi David,

Using IE6, I found that replying to the message in Yahoo Mail Classic switched the encoding to Western European (Windows). However, replying to the message in the new Yahoo Mail kept the encoding at UTF-8.

Hi Jonathan/Anita
Only works if I manually select UTF-8 in IE7
Then, on clicking reply, the font is again deselected
and looks like rubbish again.

Other folk seemed to have found options in Yahoo Mail
[whether the "classic" version or the new one], but I
have not found a way to set it to a Unicode default,
which is a shame.

Have you been back to Australia, Jonathan?  That was a
great day we had in Sydney with Ward Powers about 10
years ago.
