Thank you to rhesa, graff & fraktalisman for your constructive input.
"First of all, where does your source document come from? Which factors determine its encoding?"
The content comes from an input box (form) and the cgi program writes this to a text file. What happens after that i dont know. I was able to modify the script to insert a MIME header as you suggested but it did not change anything.
I dont know what determines its encoding. I think im going to have to get the programmer involved here and come back with some code and more info.
thank you again to everyone.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
