Central European (Windows)
 
For one of my customers (U.S.), all her emails have Central European
(Windows) in the title bar at the top of all emails from her. What is that?

Thanks!

Steve

That's the encoding she's using (View | Encoding).

Encoding is the method being used to encode the message for transmittal over
the Internet. One of the possibilities is Plain Text, which is closest to
no encoding at all, but it can only use the first 128 characters of the
ASCII set.

Encodings are where it is defined how to display some national characters.
You haven't installed the CE encoding so your programs don't know what it
is.

Look in Tools | Options | Read | Fonts. If Encoding is not Western European
(ISO), choose it at the top (Font Settings) and select it to Set as Default.

I use outlook 2000 and my emails are doing the same thing. I look in
my options and my encoding is set for Western European (windows). But
everything coming back to me (even if I send it to myself) shows up as
Central European (windows). I guess I am a little concerned that
something is going on I don't understand.
