One problem still is mis-labelled mail. On Wed, 13 Jun 2001,
e. g., I filed a bug report against Eudora 5.1 (the latest
version), quote:
| - Eudora 5.1 sends proprietary Microsoft encoding CP-1252,
| erroneously labelled as charset="iso-8859-1".

For "ordinary users", i. e., those users who don't have the TUS 3.0
tome lying next to their computers, a "last resort glyph" would
probably be more helpful, cf. <http://crl.nmsu.edu/~mleisher/lr.html>
and <http://fonts.apple.com/LastResort/LastResort.html>.
