I have noticed a problem recently, which I did not have
with SeaMonkey v14.1. With v17.1 and v20 some (most)
accented characters are incorrectly displayed in the
mail component of SeaMonkey. The characters are displayed
correctly if I select "view message body as simple HTML",
though. Only "original HTML" gives problems, but for many
(other) messages simple html is, well, too simplistic
and messes up formatting. The messages I am having problems
with contain French characters and originate from Outlook
but I wouldn't be too quick on blaming it on that source,
since again, the same messages/profile display just fine
(in original html mode) when reverting to SM14
Has anyone noticed something similar, or know of a related
bug already having been logged ?
I see a post by "flyguy" titled Getting strange characters in emails
instead of ' and "
This describes a similar problem. In his case it seems the problematic
messages were using UTF-8 whereas mine are ISO-8859-1, and A.Williams
suggested the bug might be originating from ThunderBird
(https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=594646 )
Quite possibly, but unfortunately I can confirm the problem is
definitely still there in SM20.
I had exactly the same problem as yours.
So i modify "Preferences" - "Mail and Newsgroup" - "Character Encoding"
- "Default Character Encoding"
changing it from "Western (ISO-8859-1)" to "Unicode (UTF-8)".
