Hiro -- No, "Common prefs - Display - Encoding" is conditional. The
text with it says, "This is used when displaying messages with missing
character encoding."  Some of the email I receive needs Western European
Windows encoding to be fully read, and I have that set in "Common
prefs - Display - Encoding," but Sylpheed does not make the change. I'm
asking about allowing the user to change the default character set,
i.e. the starting point, and if that would cause problems.  This could
also be changed under "View - Character Encoding," if it held session to
session.
