But that's no excuse for substituting ā's (U+0101) for the OP's â's
(U+00E2).. or did you..? or is it another instance of Google groups
misbehaving..? ;-)

Because that's what I get here in mutt: 'parâmetro' in his initial post
becomes 'parāmetro' in your reply, in the quoted text.

To the OP:

When did this start happening..? what encoding are you using in Vim..?
