    Yes, I see six messages here that came in on Nov 15th.

    There are some UTF-8 characters in there that Mystic can't display. You could try converting it to CP437 with iconv:

    iconv -f UTF8 -t CP437//TRANSLIT CRYPTOGM.TMP > CRYPTOGM.TXT

    I'm not sure if iconv works exactly the same on Mac as it does on linux so YMMV.

    Btw, busybox has iconv. Cool. There are quite a few encodings
    supported.


    busybox iconv --help
    BusyBox v1.37.0-FRP-5398-g89ae34445 (2024-06-25 08:38:11 BST)

    Usage: iconv [-lc] [-o outfile] [-f from-enc] [-t to-enc] [FILE]...

    Convert text between character encodings

    -l List all known character encodings
    -c Silently discard characters that cannot be converted
    -o Use outfile for output
    -f Use from-enc for input characters
    -t Use to-enc for output characters

    I have added that to the script that auto posts it
