Hej August!

You are correct, except they are still part of the msg_body and not the
msg_header, or at least in the packed msg this is so.  How your particular
application handles them on the local displey is up to your application but
the msg_body shouldn't be messed with as far as altering them is concerned. 
As you have clearly demonstrated with the 8-bit encodings (eg CP437), this
isn't always the case and bad things can and do happen.

You can now hang your head in shame.  :-)

Het leven is goed,
Maurice
