[chirp_users] chirp_users Digest, Vol 109, Issue 6 and many others

Taking another look at the original email, what I'm seeing is that the 
email sent by Fred appears to be using "smart quotes' on the Mac (or at 
least it's sent from "Mac OS X Mail 10.3" per the headers).


Here's what his email looks like internally (inside the MIME envelope):

    Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
    Content-Type: text/plain;
    	charset=utf-8

    Tip - it=E2=80=99s not Mac iOS (that=E2=80=99s the OS for the iPhone). =
    It=E2=80=99s MacOS.

    FTDI does support Mac OS quite well. The cloning cables I've gotten =
    directly from the manufacturer or Valley Enterprises.

    73=E2=80=99s

    Fred
    KI7BCL


Note the use of the unicode code point E2 80 99, which is defined as:

U+2019 	’ 	e2 80 99 	RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK


(more here: 
http://www.utf8-chartable.de/unicode-utf8-table.pl?start=8192&number=128)

Chris appears to be using Hotmail (and charset ISO-8859-1) based on the 
headers in his email.

There's an article on Apple.com about this.  Apparently, disabling smart 
quotes will fix the issue:
- https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6322119

FYI--I've seen similar problems when people use Word to compose their 
emails and then copy-and-paste the text to the email client. Word also 
uses smart quotes (which means it's using the 'e2 80 99' code point 
instead of the old-fashioned regular apostrophe (code point 27)).

Although it seems to me that perhaps if smart quotes are becoming more 
common, that perhaps Hotmail should start supporting them correctly.  As 
I mentioned in a previous email, my Android email client (GMail app) had 
no issues with Fred's original email.  And now that I'm on my PC (Ubuntu 
16.04 LTS with Thunderbird), his email reads just fine (I.e. no 
extraneous question marks).  However, if I look very closely, I can see 
that the apostrophes in his first sentence are visually distinct from 
the apostrophe in his second sentence.  The difference being that the 
ones in the first sentence are smart quotes and the second sentence has 
the old standard apostrophe.  The same is true of the apostrophe in his 
sign-off '73's'.  The apostrophe is actually the "RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION 
MARK' again, which is visually distinct.
