Now that you mention it, I've noticed that all my emails that contain
accented characters don't print out correctly. Whenever I used this, I was
in a hurry and never remembered to report it.

HINDS' LAW OF COMPUTER PROGRAMMING
    1) Any given program, when running, is obsolete.
    2) If a program is useful, it will have to be changed.
    3) If a program is useless, it will have to be documented.
    4) Any given program will expand to fill all available memory.
    5) The value of a program is proportional to the weight of its output.
    6) Program complexity grows until it exceeds the capability of the
    programmer who must maintain it.
    7) Make it possible for programmers to write programs in English, and
    you will find that programmers cannot write in English.
