Hi - long-term XEmacs/VM user here. I've been seeing this problem for
a while but am reporting it for the first time now (sorry if this is a
FAQ, I did a quick web search but did not find an answer to this one).
Every so often, email message text is cut off with a message like this:
iconv: illegal input sequence at position 161
This would appear to be a VM issue, as XEmacs itself doesn't use iconv
anywhere that I know of, although if you just happen to be on AIX 3.2.2
it links to the iconv library for the benefit of X11R5. (Yes, "5". :-)
The bullet displays correctly in a terminal, but if I copy/paste it
to
an XEmacs window, it becomes a double-quote
I don't know what's going on here, but I assume this is an XEmacs
bug. I'll look into it.
