Hello, Alexander!

The other day Alexander Koryagin (2:221/6) wrote to me:

I checked the messages I posted recently via 2:221/1 & /6 and the replies from
you, and it appears that either
a) they're getting corrupted on your end before reaching the newsgate, or
b) the newsgate is somehow mangling the quoted text.
I have no idea why it only occurs when YOU reply to ME though. This kind of
software misbehaving is new to me. Codepage translation might seem to be the
case -- not in the first instance, however.

Do you happen to use any third-party apps for message quoting (which I
remember you did in the past)?

Well, but IMHO people write words on the fences, not post them. ;-)
