Force Mail.app to always send UTF-8 messages
Well, it works for me only if I include foreign characters in my email (like ישח). Then mail uses UTF-8. Otherwise it uses USASCII.

Yes, in certain circumstances, like when your text only has ascii in it, you need to use Fix C in the note http://homepage.mac.com/thgewecke/woutlook.html, namely put a dingbat or some other character in your text which will force UTF-8.
Force Mail.app to always send UTF-8 messages
Well, of course if it's ASCII only there's no point in forcing UTF-8, as ASCII and UTF-8 are identical (where they overlap). That was one of the rationales behind the design of UTF-8. UTF-8's first 128 characters have the same binary as ASCII and so even if your computer doesn't understand UTF-8 it'll still understand the most common letters (in English at least).
Force Mail.app to always send UTF-8 messages
I think that a text which the composer considers to be ascii (e.g. no accented chars or smart punctuation) may contain non-ascii nbsp's if in Rich Text (=html) in Mail, and these can get misread by Outlook as non-characters, displaying as question marks. In this situation it is desirable to force the message into uniform UTF-8 so as to get the nbsp's read as spaces. I don't think the terminal command will do this, but adding a Unicode dingbat will. |
