It is not really difficult, especially for me in particular. I don ot
care about registries because I have none :-)

But you posted the code that I cited, and my newsreader (slrn) did _not_
trigger any mime decoding or something, that is, it showed your unicode
as plain ascii. And that looks like plain garbage.

So, either your newsreader told you it was ascii, but it wasn't; or it
knew it was _not_ ascii but did not declare it.
