Be interesting to discover if Mail.app has a preferences key which specifies the output encoding. Maybe something like:

defaults write com.apple.mail NSPreferredMailCharset "UTF-8"

Hello Yvan,


There are several discussions available: <http://homepage.mac.com/ thgewecke/woutlook.html>, and <http://www.macosxhints.com/ article.php?story=20070808165831835> are just a few. Some people claimed that it doesn't work, others have no problem, and still others claim that you must write this setting logged in as root.


Also look at the '☞' character in my sig. Apparently having such a character anywhere in the message body will force the encoding.
…


I think you can only see the change in the raw source of the email message.

Hello Philip

I'm not acustomed to terminal.

I opened a terminal window.

I entered
sudo
then I entered
defaults write com.apple.mail NSPreferredMailCharset "UTF-8"

Alas this seems to change nothing in the Mail.app behaviour.

It continues to default to automatic.
