All I can say is that in the message as sent, all accented vowels were=20
replaced by black diamonds with a white ? over each of them. Manually=20
setting the "character encoding" to UTF-8 still displayed it wrongly,=20
setting it to ISO-8859-15 showed them correctly. -- In the message as=20
received, ISO-8859-1 was checked in the View -> Character Encoding menu=20
of my mail client, Mozilla Thunderbird version 1.0.2 (20050325).
