I suspect you will end up using UTF-8 to encode / decode Hebrew. Mac OS X
incorporates Hebrew unicode (starting in Mac OS X 10.2). However, if the
characters are not encoded using UTF-8, all bets are off.

Re(3): Foreign text

2004-05-13 Thread smelik

I have sent myself several Hebrew emails (via GyazMail) coded ISO 8859-8,
set PM preferences for undefined incoming mail to  ISO 8859-8 with
language family Hebrew, and used mail > encoding > iso 8859-8, but I
still receive question marks. Moreover, PM crashed about 6 times, once
even crashing the whole OS, once I managed to force quit it after 5 min,
when changing the text encoding or opening the mail under discussion.

Am I doing something wrong here?

I assume the ISO encoding is a safer bet than Mac Hebrew settings,
because most email will alas come from Windows users.

They weren't ever on PM, so you can't wait for them to come back. ;-)

However, like other requests, it's up to CTM Dev. to prioritize these. I
know off hand of at least 3 or 4 things that should be fixed/added before
something as tricky as threading is added (I have never found a perfect
threading email client... some messaged get orphaned or branched that
shouldn't be, but I also haven't spent any real time using threading).

Can you not choose another text encoding (e.g. ISO 8859-8 Hebrew) from
the Mail > Text Encodings menu?

You don't understand: I know about this function, know about threading

Hi,

Sometimes I receive an email in Hebrew, with the text replaced by
question marks. Is there a way in PM to preserve the original format and
then read such mails in another app that can handle it, similar to the
HTML option?

Because my university does not want me to leave POPmail on the server
(which would have solved the problem), and PM does not handle IMAP
conveniently enough to really use it (which would also solve the
problem), at the moment such emails are essentially lost as soon as PM
retrieves them.

All the best

Willem

Cool - this change in behaviour completely passed by my attention.

Automatically add set of CC's when To is ?

2004-05-13 Thread Christian Roth

Hi,

is there a way to have PM automatically add a set of CC: adresses when
the To: address of an outgoing/newly composed mail is a specific one?

Background is that a customer of mine wants me to CC any mails to him to
some list of related addressees. Since I constantly forget to do this
manually, I'd like to automate this by having added the defined ones
automatically when composing a mail to him.

Things I've already looked at:

1) Outgoing mail filter: Does not work since they run only AFTER sending
the mail.

2) Address Book group: Does not work since all group members are added
either all as To: addressees or Cc: addressees, but not preconfigurable
selectable as one To: and the remaining as CCs (at least I haven't found
something like this).

Any ideas?

Thanks, Christian.
