 If I comment the elseif in the above source code the message is
displayed (and also openned in the compose window) correctly. All
UTF8 body-encoded messages are displayed correctly but all non utf8
not, of course (without the elseif all are decoded, including those
who doesn't need to be decoded).

 Which condition should I put in the elseif() to apply utf8_decode
just to messages that are utf8 encoded?

 I'll make a test battery in any case :)

 Thanks a lot for your help in all this thread.
