OK, I think I misunderstood what you meant before. The "-decode-" 
business is complicated, so I'll just leave that to you. But instead 
of commenting out the warning statement, I think I'll try to have it 
emailed to me. That way, I'll still get them.

BTW, I received a different warning the other day:

Warning: Unrecognized character set: 
us-ascii<002101c05b35$8e6aeba0$c581e0d8@fred>

Which seemed to have been generated by an email with this in the header:

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
  <002101c05b35$8e6aeba0$c581e0d8@fred>

Weird! I guess that person's email program didn't generate the header 
correctly?
