Is there a way to turn off the utf-8 warning that thunderbird seems to generate EVERY time i replay or forward an email? The three properties in config didn't seem to address the issue:

http://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config_entries
Code:
 network. standard-url. encode-utf8     Boolean     Determines how URLs are encoded and sent
 network. standard-url. escape-utf8     Boolean     Determines whether URLs with UTF-8 characters are escaped per the spec
 prefs. converted-to-utf8               Boolean     True: The preferences have been converted to UTF-8; decode as appropriate

Hi,

You did set a UTF-8 default value in the configuration.
That means every time you reply a non-UTF8 compiled email, you will get the warning.

Not setting the default will not generate a warning :-)

Hope this helps,

I did? where?

The only utf config stuff I could find was on the website listed in the original post. I tried all different permutations of those properties to turn off this warning with no luck. Is there somewhere else in the preferences I should be looking. I could't find anything else related to utf in the Thunderbird Preferences.

Thanks,
