Yeah, that seems really suboptimal, but I'm not sure what the fix should be. Converting everything to hex seems rather odd, since that would make l=E1tin and unicode characters also be hexified, which is weird. I think the right fix is to remove this question altogether from emacsbug.el, and inhibit the "remove non-printable characters" query from message.el. Any objections? --=20 (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) larsi@gnus.org * Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen
