Ok. Since I saw you on the channel last night, I've been banging my head on this. I am using latest 1.4.x CVS, and I was observing the same thing. Drove me nuts.I tried inserting at the preference file(s) language='es_ES' (yes, i'm from spain ;-) ) I tried changing the preference via the options squirrelmail page and setting the language to spanish... And everything still in english except the help pages.
So. Here's what *I* had to do. The help files are encoded in the right language, so the fact that they're showing up doesn't mean anything except that we're reading your preferences correctly. The culprit is gettext, and available locales.
Since I'm an english speaker, I didn't have much installed in the way of extra locales. I had to go and add the target locales (I use a package-based Linux installation, so it was a matter of adding locales-de, locales-es, etc). After adding the target locale, I restarted apache, and boom - everything encoded as it should be!
I highly doubt it's something in the SquirrelMail config - there are people that use it quite successfully. If 1.2.10 is being too much of a pain, you can try 1.4.0 RC2, and see if that helps. That said, I really think the finger should be pointed at gettext, which fails silently if there is a problem, leaving only what you see - i.e. untranslated text.
