Hear! Hear!
This is a very treacherous source of embarassment, because you may for
some time be unaware of the peculiar appearance of your outgoing e-mail. I
for one don't need my MUA to make me look stupid, I usually manage
unaided.

This, at least, is what your humble user would very much like, as an
unfortunate speaker of one of those nasty non-7-bit languages seemingly
designed in response to the ASCII standard with the sole purpose of
upsetting programmers' sense of good taste and no-nonsense by wantonly
introducing funny characters into everyday written conversation. (Please
pardon the sarcastic note.)
