Thanks for your reply and explanation. I don't know in what code SC is 
written. Most modern languages have string-handling functions that allow 
multi-byte strings, and those would (normally) handle "every 
character-set under the sun". This is an effort that would need to be 
done once; replace the single-byte capable string functions with 
multi-byte capable ones. And then there is of course the encoding of the 
outgoing report that needs to be the same as the incoming spam message.

The question is whether or not SC is willing to provide the *original* 
message to the recipients. I do not work at an abuse desk, so I don't 
know how important it is to see the original spam. I just imagine that I 
would rather see the original message than a page full of question marks.
