Sorry for the inaccuracy. I was addressing this using the terminology
that Outlook Express uses. Mostly to give those a hint that might
otherwise not know where to adjust those settings.
The German OE addresses this subject by "Internationale Ein-
stellungen..." (international settings) and then "Englische Kopfdaten
beim Antworten auf Nachrichten verwenden" (use English header data
when replying to messages).

> And the RFC's allows for localized content.

But apparently most ml-software doesn't care about that.

Regarding my case, I have to manually change the unwanted "AW:" my
client puts in the subject line in every mail I send out, since my MUA
doesn't allow for any user settings to be made and preset is the
OSes locale.
But there might as well be more advanced MUAs around than 1996's
"Exchange Client". ;-)

Very much to my regret the tags identifying mails from this list have
disappeared. If there is any chance, I'd really love to have them
back.
