 CJ> Wanneer wordt die legacy umlaut eindelijk eens verwijderd?

Why do you call it "legacy? It is just wrongly encoded. The enconding is
Latin-1 while it should be UTF-8.

I just report the error, it is not in my power to correct it. That is the job
of the *Cs.

Your message was encoded in CP437. That does not work well for quoting UTF-8
