Clearly, Microsoft Entourage doesn't produce Mac charsets; it produces some sort of MS charset which may've been based on a Mac charset back in the old days. (We'll know for sure when we see whether there's a kernel of good in this funny charset or not ... I'll defer to the iconv people for word on that. . .)
