David Poelhman suggests setting Outlook to uuencode.  This may work 
because the concept of character sets is a MIME specification.  However, 
any attachments you send will be encoded with uuencode which is an ancient 
ancestor of modern MIME that isn't handled by a lot of mailers anymore 
including Pine.  So, you're better off getting your character set set to 
ISO8859-1 and leaving it alone.  Just thought you all would like to know.

P.S. How does one customize Redhat's firewall scripts from the command 
line?  I can select high, medium, or off, but selecting custom just gives 
me the setup menu again.  I asked this yesterday, but never saw a reply in 
all the flaming about Windows mailers.
