Hi,

please don't crosspost, i.e. choose either kdepim-users or kde-pim, but 
not both. Thank you!

Your questions should have been answered by Thomas on the kde-pim 
mailing list. I strongly support Thomas recommendation not to worry 
about the encoding. Let KMail choose a suitable encoding for your 
messages.


Regards,
Ingo
