Re: tlug: EUC & SJIS (Was: kterm/kinput2 conversion)

What environment variables/software/etc do I need to send email in
ISO-2022-JP?  Can that be done with my current config of
kinput2/canna/kterm?  That is how I am using pine so that I can read
Japanese email, but when I send in EUC and SJIS my receivers have gotten
mojibake...

BTW, thanks for your answers on this and spur threads which have really
enlightened me.
