Hi, the same applies for 3.26.0+, that's why this plea exists. > And up to the user whether to enable that localization or not.

Well, those are two different things (also see below). The "composer- use-localized-fwd-re" bool option is there to let Evolution know that it should use/add the localized version, as specified by the translator, of the Fwd/Re prefix when creating a new forward or reply message (aka when Ctrl+F/Ctrl+R is pressed in the Mail view). > And I don't understand why it's up to translators to define a > localized language prefix but up to users to set the localized prefix > to make Evolution recognize it. Translators cannot fill "composer-localized-re", translators can only define what the prefix might be in their language (which happened for 3.26.0, by tagging the strings for translation). The "composer- localized-re" is to contain all the prefixes the user receives messages with, thus for example some in German, Czech, whatever. It would not make sense to need from every translator to define all possible prefixes for all known languages. The options look similar, but they are not the same. I hope it makes it clearer.
