I still haven't received any answer regarding this.

  Simply repeated (original is below): can charset in (automated) messages
be controlled by LISTSERV either in config or in templates etc? I repeat
that their should be a mapping available for which messages LISTSERV inserts
Content-Type and for which not. As is now the template files can not be used
100% correctly in native, non-western languages. A shame for a $7000
licence.

  Of course, our LISTSERV is working perfectly otherwise.

Subject: (un)forcing Content-Type in LISTSERV responses


I've added our language.mailtpl file to LISTSERV and configured our
native language (Slovene) to domestic lists. Everything should work OK but
on retrieving SIGNUP1 message our native characters are not shown because
LISTSERV inserts
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
into message header.

  So I've had to change characters in SIGNUP1 and some others to non-
accented characters which is really bad. Strange because LISTSERV doesn't
insert that message to lists using default language mail template. Can
somehow LISTSERV be configured that it either:
a) doesn't insert Content-Type line into message header
b) inserts Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-2 (note 2) so for
lists using slovene.mailtpl messages would be displayed OK?

  And additional question - is there a list of messages to which LISTSERV
adds Content-Type (and to which it doesn't)? Without that info trial&error
process is a waste of time.

  Thanks,
