I noticed that when I composed mail in either Message or Mail Mode that the MIME attributes stated that I was sending a charset of us-ascii and I would really like to send my mails with utf-8 set as the character set. Does anyone know the magic incantation to get Mail/Message Mode to do that? I am using EMACS 23.1.1 on amd64 Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala). Thank you all very much in advance. Chris
