If you use Emacs on DOS to prepare the mail message ("C-x m" inside
Emacs), make sure the charset= header says something like cp437
(assuming that's the codepage you have installed).  Then save the
message to a file, carry it to the Solaris box, and send the message
from Emacs there ("C-x m", then empty the *mail* buffer, type "C-x i"
to insert the contents of the file you brought from DOS, and finally
"C-c C-s" to send it).  If Martin uses Emacs to read the mail, he (and
all the rest of us) will see the same characters you sent.
