I can go back further.

No, the message has no CHRS kludge - so "xlatimport cp437" assumes that message is cp437.

I can't imagine why that message wouldn't be cp437. Wilfred has more of a cp437 setup and it displays fine for him. Here is the same message viewed over telnet using Syncterm - which is a cp437 telnet client. Currently, it does not support utf-8.

Also, in a previous message I also showed a screenshot of the same message viewed in Thunderbird using Smapinntpd - which uses the same character translation tables as Golded. In Smapinntpd's config, I use "read cp437" which is basically the same thing as "xlatimport cp437" and it displays correctly there as well.
