The question mark symbol is #63. It > lies between the numbers and the capital letter set. I'm not reading any ascii table, and I did NOT send a question mark. IIRC I copied an a with something looking like an inverted circumflex above. I was using gmail in ubuntu in firefox, wihich I think works in unicode and sends mail in UTF-8, AAMOF I've looked at it and I see: >>> From: Francisco Olarte <folarte@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: Denisa Cirstescu <Denisa.Cirstescu@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Tom Lane <tgl@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>, "pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx" <pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <<< and a little below: >>> I repeat for the last time.

Also, many programs use ? as a placeholder for something not in its charset, so always suspect you are not seeing the right char when you encounter one of this things. Francisco Olarte.
