I still don't see a problem; I looked at one of your posts from the TFN,
posted today. I got it from a German news server, received it over
Rogers Hispeed service. The accents are there:

*
Claude Latr=E9mouille
*
   =3D=3D=3D claudel@torfree.net =3D=3D=3D
   =3D=3D=3D CLAUDE LATR=C9MOUILLE =3D=3D=3D
   =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=
=3D=3D=3D

It left the TFN with accents intact.
