* On Windows-based servers, the MIME prefix is "windows-" rather than "cp", for example, "windows-1254."

If you do not use this setting, the POP3 server looks for a WWWDSP_Codepage value, if this setting is added. (WWWDSP_Codepage controls the character set used by the Web Navigator and accepts the same values as MailCharSet.)

Applies to: Servers

Default: None, although if this setting is omitted and there is no WWWDSP_Codepage setting, the POP3 server uses the us-ascii character set.

UI equivalent: None
