From the looks of that screenshot, it doesn't look like it quotes very well,
either, going from 80 or more characters wide to 50 characters. But I would
imagine if there were no initials before the quoted text, it would probably
work better.

Either way, that's because you seem to have Aftershock setup for CP437
charset. Those kind of UTF-8 characters do not translate to CP437, at all.

Did Maurice's original message show up ok for you? Because I don't think CP866
(at least those characters) translates to CP437, either.

Can Aftershock use different charsets?

Regards,
Nick
