Hi, I get mail from a listserv group which contains accented
characters (irish), and I see in emacs there are functions
standard-european-display, and iso-accent-mode. I've tried issuing set
transfer character-set latin1, but this does not change anything, I
still get escaped octal codes or whatever, e.g. \353. I'll read more,
but if someone can point me in the right direction I'd be grateful.
