There is information about Japanse usage of MHonArc in the documentation, with links to a user's site that has provided some Japanese-specific information (site in Japanese). ISO-2022-JP is usable, but you would need to change some resource settings to avoid potential problems. However, this may not work for you based on how mail-archive.com operates. Normalizing everything to UTF-8 may be the best approach, but you need to consider if htdig support UTF-8. > Everybody, I've been thinking revising the i18n/l10n scheme for > The Mail Archive.

MHonArc supports translating message character encoding to a specific charset, like UTF-8. See the TEXTENCODE resource page for more details. If you decide to go the TEXTENCODE route, I recommend that you go with the latest version of perl as possible, or at least, the latest version of Perl's Encode module. --ewh _______________________________________________ Discussion list for The Mail Archive Gossip@jab.org http://jab.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gossip
