    Like <’>, in this or in Kyle’s mails? So probably your terminal’s
charset has some lacking characters… The best solution would be to use a
better terminal, with a CP-1252 or UTF-8 charset, and of course the
corresponding system locale. Otherwise you could try iconv’s
transliterations by appending "//TRANSLIT" to the $charset value.

    Procmail “solutions” unreversibly modifying the original mails can
very well turn to be destructive by accident. Rather dangerous.

    What do you mean exactly?
