This setting is suboptimal on a Latin-1 or Latin-9 terminal.
Assuming Philippe uses Latin-9, would be better:
| set charset="iso-8859-15//TRANSLIT"
That will show straight all Latin-9 chars, additionally approximate
chars outside Latin-9, and eventually use Latin-9 char(s) for those
approximations. And it permits to properly send accented letters.

When you post a new message, beginning a new topic, use the "mail" or
"post" or "new message" functions.
When you reply or followup, use the "reply" or "followup" functions.
Do not do the one for the other, this breaks or hijacks threads.
