Default Active Window bar in OE6

I was replying to an email today and noticed something strange in the active
window bar of the reply. In addition to the [subject] it also has
Baltic (Windows). I checked another email reply and it only contained the
[subject]. Any idea as to what Baltic (Windows) means?

You are seeing a message that was sent to you using that form of encoding,
Baltic (Windows).

From OE Help.
To read and send international messages

Outlook Express can usually display messages in the language in which they
were sent. However, some messages, particularly those from newsgroups, often
do not have enough information (or the information is incorrect) in the
header file to display the correct language.

To change the language encoding for a message you are reading

a.. In the message window, on the View menu, point to Encoding, and then
click the language encoding you want to use. (You must already have support
for that language, which you can get from the International area of the
Internet Explorer Web site.)
Outlook Express displays incoming messages using the default encoding for
reading messages unless the message header specifies a particular language
encoding.

To set the default encoding for reading messages

1.. On the Tools menu, click Options, and on the Read tab, click Fonts.
2.. Select a language at the top, and then click Set as Default.
Sending international messages

When you reply to a message, it is sent in the same language encoding as the
original message. If you change the language encoding in your reply, the
original characters may not appear properly unless you are sending the
message in HTML (and the receiving program can read HTML). You can also send
the message using Unicode; however, not all e-mail and news reading programs
can display a Unicode message.

To use a different encoding for sending a single message

a.. In the message window, on the Format menu, point to Encoding and then
click the language encoding you want to use.
New messages use the default encoding setting for sending messages.

To set the default encoding for sending messages

1.. On the Tools menu, click Options.
2.. On the Send tab, click International Settings, and then select the
default encoding you want to use.
