People who have accents in their names are not going to anglicise their names to please you, likewise with people who've names that don't use English characters, at all, and words that have accents as a proper part of their name, or anything else beyond ASCII (which has ALWAYS been hopelessly inadequate for anything other than basic grade school language). As far as etiquette goes, you're taking the cake for blasting it away to be a rude pig. You also seem to have a general misunderstanding about what plain text means, not to mention the technicalities of email. Content-type text/plain just means text, it doesn't disallow MIME headers, nor content-type-encoding, such as base 64. They're different things, again, and still part of plain text content. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.26.6-79.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
