I saw this on the homepage, but I too cannot read some mail I get from people
using Outlook or OE.  I usually tell them to get their encoding right or 
don't mail me, but I would like to be able to just read the messages.  And,
yes, I do have libjconv support compiled in.  It just doesn't always work.
A couple times it is because the header explicitly lied about what encoding
it was using, ie it was all UTF-8, but the header said iso-8859-1.  But in
other cases, the header just didn't say what it was and sylpheed still just
displayed ??? marks for everything.

*shrug*
