Good question - it isn't that easy to answer.

- I got your message with the Euro. The message was encoded in UTF-8: 
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed
- I replied to the message, with the encoding also [supposedly] UTF-8. I 
could see the Euro in the reply as I typed.
- By the time I view the reply on the lists, it no longer as the Euro.

Now, I suspect, it is something in the header that I sent, that got stripped 
out or confused the NNTP server. However, it could also be my client lying 
to me, telling it was going to send the response as UTF-8, when it actually 
converts it to something else before it sends (and does a bad job at 
converting). Either way, there is no encoding line in the header of my reply 
on the server.
