Hi Everybody!
I can never pronounce European names from print. Is it La meter. or La
mat ray, Le ma tray or what?

Thanks for any help.

I would guess you pronounce it like Ma=EEtre d'? (as in the restaurant
manager). Or do you not use that term in the states?

Hi Paul!
ROFL, yes, we do. But I usually eat at places that have hostesses rather
than Maître d's, if even that. Yes, that could be the right way to say it.
Maybe I need to visit the first name as well. Is it Georg es, Gay or
jay, or what?

No, it's not broken; it just isn't able to decipher this:
Subject: =?Windows-1252?B?
UmU6IFtPVF0gUHJvbm91bmNpbmcgdGhlIG5hbWU6IEdlb3JnZXMgTGVtYe50cmU=?=
That's from the raw source of the message. Can you tell that [OT] is
in that subject?

Hi Ed!
Email gremlins. It reads (in a view source window) "Subject: [OT]
Pronouncing the name: Georges =?ISO-8859-1?Q?Lema=EEtre?=" on my end.
Must have gotten scrambled in the bitosphere.

Hi Jean!
No, the file was stripped by strip mime. If you send it to me private I
may get it.

If you cut and paste into the subject, that can happen.
