Thanks Again, Erin
You have changed different squirrelmail install or RH changed something in squirrelmail i18n. Your changes should have set US English translation to utf-8 charset. Which charsets are used in your emails? iso-2022-jp, euc-jp, some other charset. Which extensions are supported by your php install? I need information about iconv and recode support. Which php version is used? Can you check if you can write in Japanese when Lithuanian or Russian translations are used. If lt_LT and ru_RU locales are not installed, interface will remain in English. Don't try to reply to other Japanese email. Only write in Japanese and check if others can read it. Can you create utf-8 encoded html page with all Kanji, Hirigana and Katakana characters and check if your browser displays them correctly? -- Tomas ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
