Now, this would require TB! to be able to use this language information to choose the viewer profile, may make it more complicated. For myself, I wouldn't want to have to install and configure another software, I would just like to use the current easy way. Keep it simple. Defining a default viewer profile with easy switching to another, would do it for me.

I'm not so sure I want automatic switching of fonts gbased on charset: People write to me in English from their Thai computers, using a Thai encoding as default. The font should be switched according to the language used, not the encoding. And I don't think that TB! can detect the language, so let's just have a default and easy switching. Idea: Let us choose the default font (viewer profile) per account, not as a global setting. And maybe let us override the account setting in the folder settings. -- Cheers, Thomas.

I was just going to ask you what you mean by profile and how easy it is to switch. Right now, I toggle by right-clicking in the message and left-clicking on Use Plaintext, that's very quick and easy for me. Changing the viewer profile based on character set is dangerous. I receive messages in English language from people who use Thai encoding as default on their computers - I want to read these messages in Courier New. Other people will send message with that encoding in Thai, which I want to read in AngsanaUPC. Right now, the PTV with Courier New is set as the default, and I believe your viewer profiles will also have a default profile, in which I can set Courier New, with easy switching to AngsanaUPC. I don't have need for a third font anymore, but I used to receive mails with Chinese characters, usually addresses or company names in Chinese inmidst an otherwise English email.
