Eric,

Yes.

>The list of "officially" supported encodings for XP is :

XP> XP supports the following encodings:
XP>
XP> UTF-8
XP> UTF-16
XP> ISO-8859-1
XP> US-ASCII

If XP is not firing an error on a 'broken' encoding, but silently corrupts the content - this is serious bug in XP then. I can't belive XP is such a ... thing.

Anyway - thank you very much for the places you pointed out.

PS.

Even the attachment has been gone, you can reproduce this problem easily - just try to transform tiny text file with <text> symbols greater than 128 </text>
