Hi there! We are trying to use support for japanese language, but when composing in squirrelmail or while resending either in squirrel or in Outlook, we do not get the right symbols. The server and client PCs have all the required software. Indeed, we receive japanese written messages and can display them well. The problem arises when we resend or compose a message. In the squirrel configuration, we found that our imap has to support the charsets we want to use. The question is, how can we add this to dovecot. We are using release 0.99.14-1 on GNU Debian 3.1 r0 (sarge) Any idea? Thanks for helping -- Alta tecnologia para la empresa mexicana

I'm not sure if this problem is related to dovecot at all... Do the message composed look funny on the receiver side (likely a problem with your Postfix/sendmail configuration) or on the sender's side, that is, in the "Sent" folder? Regards, Andr? -- Andr?

I would venture to guess that this is either a problem with the squirrelmail installation or the MTA. I'm also using a recent version of Squirrelmail in Japanese without any problems. Earlier versions had some issues (like if you had SM set to english menu mode and tried to read or send Japanese, it would appear as 'mojibake' ... that seems to have been fixed in the most recent release) for what it's worth, this mail that I'm replying to came across without any issues whatsoever. alan
